A fascinating look at the insect world found in one field in France and how important that world is to all of us from the author of the Sunday Times bestseller A Sting in the Tale In 2003 Dave Goulson bought a derelict farm in the heart of rural France together with 33 acres of surrounding meadow

SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER The Garden Jungle is a wonderful introduction to the hundreds of small creatures with whom we live cheek by jowl and of the myriad ways that we can encourage them to thrive The Garden Jungle is about the wildlife that lives right under our noses in our gardens and parks between the gaps in the pavement and in the soil beneath our feet Wherever you are right now the chances are that there are worms woodlice centipedes flies silverfish wasps beetles mice shrews and much much more quietly living within just a few paces of you Dave Goulson gives us an insight into the fascinating and sometimes weird lives of these creatures taking us burrowing into the compost heap digging under the lawn and diving into the garden pond He explains how our lives and ultimately the fate of humankind are inextricably intertwined with that of earwigs bees lacewings and hoverflies unappreciated heroes of the natural world The Garden Jungle is at times an immensely serious book exploring the environmental harm inadvertently done by gardeners who buy intensively reared plants in disposable plastic pots sprayed with pesticides and grown in peat cut from the ground Goulson argues that gardens could become places where we can reconnect with nature

The author has always been obsessed with wildlife from his childhood menagerie of exotic pets and dabbling in experimental taxidermy to his groundbreaking research into the mysterious ways of the bumblebee and his mission to protect our rarest bees This book tells the story of his passionate drive

Dave Goulson se obsesionó con la vida silvestre cuando era pequeño y crecía en la zona rural de Shropshire, comenzando con una colección de mascotas cada vez más exóticas. Cuando su interés se dirigio hacia lo anatomico incluso hubo algunos experimentos malogrados con la taxidermia. Pero la verdadera pasion de Goulson son las abejas, en particular el humilde abejorro.El abejorro ingles de pelo corto, que antaño era comun en las marismas de Kent, se extinguio en el Reino Unido pero, por un giro del destino, sigue existiendo en las zonas silvestres de Nueva Zelanda, descendiente de unas pocas parejas enviadas en el siglo XIX. La apasionada busqueda de Dave Goulson para reintroducirlo en su tierra natal es uno de los aspectos mas destacados de un libro que incluye investigaciones originales sobre los habitos de estas misteriosas criaturas, la relacion de la historia con el abejorro y consejos sobre como protegerlo para las generaciones futuras.Goulson, uno de los conservacionistas mas respetados del Reino Unido y fundador del Bumblebee Conservation Trust, combina relatos desenfadados sobre la creciente pasion de un niño por la naturaleza con una vision profunda de la importancia crucial del abejorro. Detalla las minucias de la vida en el nido, compartiendo fascinantes investigaciones sobre los efectos que la agricultura intensiva ha tenido en nuestra poblacion de abejas y los peligros potenciales si seguimos por este camino.

**SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER**One mans quest to save the bumblebee...Dave Goulson has always been obsessed with wildlife, from his childhood menagerie of exotic pets and dabbling in experimental taxidermy to his groundbreaking research into the mysterious ways of the bumblebee and his mission to protect our rarest bees.Once commonly found in the marshes of Kent, the short-haired bumblebee is now extinct in the UK, but still exists in the wilds of New Zealand, descended from a few queen bees shipped over in the nineteenth century.A Sting in the Tale tells the story of Goulsons passionate drive to reintroduce it to its native land and contains groundbreaking research into these curious creatures, historys relationship with the bumblebee, the disastrous effects intensive farming has had on our bee populations and the potential dangers if we are to continue down this path.

Warmly entertaining...an endearing account of the search for rare beesGuardianA hunt for the worlds most elusive bees leads Dave Goulson from Poland to Patagonia as well as closer to home, amongst the secret places hidden right under our noses: the abandoned industrial estates where great crested newts roam; or the rewilded estate at Knepp Castle, where, with the aid of some hairy, bluebell-eating Tamworth pigs, nightingale song has been heard for the first time in generations. Whether he is tracking great yellow bumblebees in the Hebrides or chasing orchid bees through the Ecuadorian jungle, Dave Goulsons wit, humour and deep love of nature make him the ideal travelling companion.
