This series recounts specific disasters and the rescue efforts made to save the animals affected, using accessible but stilted language, brief personal stories, and evocative (sometimes cute [baby turtles], sometimes disturbing [severely burned cows]) photographs. Though successes are highlighted, harsh realities are not ignored (especially in Oil Spills). Well-known examples of the specific types of disasters are appended. Reading list. Bib., glos., ind. Review covers these Rescuing Animals from Disasters titles: Saving Animals from Volcanoes, Saving Animals After Earthquakes, Saving Animals After Floods, Saving Animals from Fires, Saving Animals from Hurricanes, and Saving Animals from Oil Spills.
