内容简介:
The diminishing populations of African and Asian elephants
call to mind the extinctions of other elephantlike species, such as
mammoths and mastodons, that occurred more than 10000 years ago.
The purpose of this book is to examine the ecology and behaviour of
modern elephants to create models for reconstructing the lives and
deaths of extinct mammoths and mastodons. The sources for these
models are long-term continuing studies of elephants in Zimbabwe,
Africa. These models are clearly described with respect to the
anatomical, behavioural, and ecological similarities between past
and present proboscideans. The implications of these similarities
for the lives and deaths of mammoths and mastodons are explored in
detail. The importance of this book is primarily its unifying
perspective on living and extinct proboscideans: The fossil record
is as carefully examined as is the natural history of surviving
elephants. Dr Haynes's studies of the situations in which African
elephants die (sometimes in great numbers) are unique and can
provide crucial insights into ancient proboscidean bone
collections.

书籍介绍
The diminishing population of African and Asian elephants can be compared to the extinction of other elephant-like species, such as mammoths and mastodonts, which occurred more than ten thousand years ago. The purpose of this book is to use the ecology and behavior of modern elephants to create models for reconstructing the life and death of extinct mammoths and mastodonts. The source of the models is a long-term and continuing study of elephants in Zimbabwe, Africa. These models are clearly described with respect to the anatomical, behavioral, and ecological similarities between past and present proboscideans. The implications of these similarities on the life and death of mammoths and mastodonts is explored in detail. The importance of this book is primarily its unifying perspective on living and extinct proboscideans: the fossil record is closely examined and compared to the natural history of surviving elephants. Dr. Haynes's studies of the places where African elephants die (so-called elephant burial grounds) are unique.
