Life In The Cape York Rainforest

By Robert Heinsohn & Michael Cermak (CSIRO)

Life in the Cape York Rainforest

First book solely about Cape York rainforests

The author recounts his own ground-breaking research on cross-dressing Eclectus parrots, musical palm cockatoos and multi-coloured pythons, together with the exotic lifestyles of other animals, while painting the bigger picture of the past when Australia and New Guinea were joined by extensive land bridges. Australias disconnection from New Guinea is probably only temporary, and even today many bird species continue to fly the short distance between the two landmasses.

Whether just browsing the beautiful photos and informative captions, or reading it in its entirety, readers will gain a greater understanding of the unique attributes of our Cape York rainforests.

Soft laminated  cover. 104 pages. approx. 280mm X 215mm. APN 9781741106749. (2008). RRP $29.95
