In “A Fynbos Year”, the author portrays a selection of the diversity of plant and animal life encountered in this region over the course of a year. This is not a land of large, conspicuous animals which typify much of southern Africa and after which visitors often hanker. The title demonstrates that small is beautiful and that a multitude of fascinating plants and animals awaits the patient observer. It also highlights present threats to fynbos, especially those posed by urban and agricultural development and invasion by alien plants; and outlines current research and conservation efforts.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Aviation Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48283402272983,"sku":"9780864861030","price":300.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/6168\/5463\/files\/0864861036.jpg?v=1770806914","url":"https:\/\/aviationshop.co.za\/products\/a-fynbos-year-national-book-printers-9780864861030","provider":"The Aviation Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
