商品描述

Compared to mammals, fish are often underestimated and dismissed as less complex organisms. To refute this hasty conclusion, Horst Bleckmann presents to you the highly developed cognitive abilities of fish.

Did you know, for example, that fish are the largest group of all vertebrates, with about 30,000 species, and that they colonize all aquatic habitats? For this immense feat, they have evolved a variety of highly specialized sensory systems and behaviors. According to recent research, fish also possess not only extremely sophisticated sensory organs, but also highly developed central nervous systems that are similar in basic structure to the brains of mammals.

Immerse yourself in a fascinating world and learn all about the different sensory systems of fish. A concluding chapter additionally covers the global threat to fish from water pollution, cross-building in flowing waters, and the fishing industry.


商品描述(中文翻譯)

與哺乳動物相比,魚類常常被低估,並被視為較不複雜的生物。為了反駁這一草率的結論,Horst Bleckmann 向您展示魚類高度發展的認知能力。

例如,您知道魚類是所有脊椎動物中最大的群體,擁有約 30,000 種,並且它們佔據了所有水生棲息地嗎?為了達成這一龐大的成就,魚類進化出各種高度專門化的感官系統和行為。根據最近的研究,魚類不僅擁有極其複雜的感官器官,還擁有高度發展的中樞神經系統,其基本結構與哺乳動物的大腦相似。

沉浸在這個迷人的世界中,了解魚類的不同感官系統。最後一章還涵蓋了水污染、流動水域的跨建設以及漁業對魚類造成的全球威脅。
