About the book: 2020 / Sea turtles, lobsters and butterflies find their way using the Earth's magnetic field. Dung beetles plot a course through the light of the Milky Way. Ants and bees navigate by light patterns that are invisible to humans. Salmon return to their place of birth by smell. Whales swim thousands of miles without ever deviating from a straight course, and birds find their nests on tiny islands, having flown back and forth across entire oceans many times. Many animals have navigational abilities and often rely for navigation purposes on senses and skills that are not available to humans. But what about humans?.. Some indigenous peoples still use ancient navigation methods that allow them to make long and difficult journeys on land and sea, without even using maps or compasses—let alone GPS. But for the most part, we rely entirely on electronics. We can pinpoint our location at the touch of a button, but we actually have no idea where we are. By turning our backs on the world around us, we risk not only our physical and spiritual well-being, but perhaps also our safety... This book shows the wonders of navigation that animals are capable of in a whole new light, and will be of interest not only to those who are interested in animal world, but also has a passion for learning, exploring the unknown and self-improvement.
