About this product
Product Information
Common seals have played an important role in the economy and folklore of coastal communities since phreistoric times. They are one of Britain's most observable wild mammals and are a favourite tourist attraction in many area. This book covers all aspects of the biology of the common seal, basing itself largely on a study of their ecology in Orkney, but drawing also on previously published studies from North America and Europe. It describes their distribution around Britain and explains where they are most likely to see seals in the wild. Common seal behaviour, both on their haul-out sites and in the water, is described and information given on their population dynamics, annual cycle and feeding ecology. Deit and feeding ecology are discussed in relation to the ability to dive and exploit food resources which are unavailable to most mammals. These feeding specialisations do, however, bring common seals into conflict with man, and the final chapter examines attitudes to their conservation and management.

Recommended seller. CD dispatched promptly, seller not responsible for slight delay in delivery. Undamaged in transit, condition as described (very good). Competitive price for a rare 3-CD boxed set. No problems. Many thanks.

Arrived damaged - contrary to description. Large hardback packaged in jiffy bag. Probably damaged in transit -- sturdier packaging might have helped.
Contacted seller to try to resolve (with photos). No reply. At time of purchase a number were of this price. Prices since had jumped up. I was interested in a resolution that involved keeping it - even if it meant a damaged gift.
Would only use this seller for items where the condition is irrelevant and the price muuuuuch cheaper.

Item in Good condition as described (artwork/case in excellent condition, a few noticeable marks on disc but plays fine so no problem); delivery slightly later than estimate (was dispatched quickly and with tracking available, as have multiple previous orders which all arrived in around a week, so almost certainly just a bit of Easter disruption to postal services); safely packaged in padded envelope. Many thanks for usual excellent service at a great price.
