"Se si sta dentro un bosco in posizione di ascolto, prima o poi si avverte, si intuisce la presenza di un flusso di energia che circola tra i rami, le foglie, le radici. Talvolta è un sussurro, altre volte strepiti e grida. È come se le piante parlassero tra loro." Camminatore infaticabile e sensibilissimo osservatore della natura, Daniele Zovi, negli anni, questi suoni ha imparato ad ascoltarli e interpretarli.

In the drug world today, most of the "buzz" is centered around "legal highs" and various loopholes. Within this audiobook, I've highlighted many of the semi-legal psychoactive plants, fungi, fish, amphibians, reptiles, and insects in which these substances are derived and/or extracted/isolated from.

Faszinierendes Paralleluniversum: Sophia Kimmig entführt in die Dunkelwelt und öffnet die Augen für die Wunder der Nacht direkt vor unserer Tür. Wenn die Sonne untergegangen ist, wird es bei den Wildtieren erst richtig interessant: Wo tagsüber Menschen auf Busse warten, durchwühlt eine Wildschweinfamilie den Mülleimer an der Haltestelle. Füchse suchen nach Futter, Glühwürmchen senden Blinksignale an potenzielle Partner, Waschbären durchstöbern das Gebüsch. Die Nacht ist nicht nur eine Zeit, sondern ein vielfältiger Lebensraum, über den wir immer noch zu wenig wissen.

Nur zwei große Lebensräume unserer Erde sind scheinbar über lange Zeiträume hinweg gleich geblieben: der Dschungel und das Meer. Doch selbst die Landmassen, auf denen der Urwald liegt, haben sich aufgrund der Kontinentalverschiebungen verändert, und die Aufspal­tung und Verschmelzung der Kontinente hatten Auswirkungen auf die Ausdehnung der warmen, flachen Küstenmeere.
