We have hunted them for thousands of years and scratched their icons into our mythologies. They simultaneously fill us with waves of terror, awe and affection yet we know hardly anything about them.</strong></p><p>Whales tend to only enter our awareness when they die, struck by a ship or stranded in the surf. They evolved from land-roaming, dog-like creatures into animals that move like fish, breathe like us, can grow to 300,000 pounds, live 200 years and roam entire ocean basins. Yet despite centuries of observing whales, we know little about their evolutionary past.</p><p>In this remarkable new book, the Smithsonians star palaeontologist Nick Pyenson takes us to the ends of the earth and to the cutting edge of whale research as he searches for the answers to some of our biggest questions about these graceful giants. His rich storytelling takes us deep inside the Smithsonians unparalleled fossil collection, to frigid Antarctic waters, and to the arid desert of Chile, where scientists race against time to document the largest fossil whalebone site on earth.</p><p>Spying on Whales is an illuminating story of scientific discovery that brings readers closer to the most enigmatic and beloved animals of all time.</p>...3173262Spying on Whales: The Past, Present and Future of the Worlds Largest Animals317387https://www.gandhi.com.mx/spying-on-whales-the-past-present-and-future-of-the-worlds-largest-animals-9780008244484/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3302881/ab9488ca-f9cb-41e3-9d35-1a7a6e448077.jpg?v=638385176453930000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20189780008244484_W3siaWQiOiI5ZTJiZTc3Yy1jZGJlLTRhMmUtYjk5MC1mMmZhMGJhMjMzMDAiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjM4NywiZGlzY291bnQiOjcwLCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjMxNywiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjUtMDctMDFUMDA6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9780008244484_<p><strong>Whales are among the largest, most intelligent, deepest diving species to have ever lived on our planet.
