More than a story about one brave lion, this book offers an introduction to life science by looking at the workings of an ecosystem, the methods of scientists and environmentalists, and the interconnection between the plant, animal, and human systems. Poaching and war damaged an isolated wilderness in West Zambia, reducing its lion population to just one: Lady, the last lioness. Witness Lady's fight for survival in this evocative narrative on the decline, fall, and rebirth of the Liuwa Plains. Follow Lady as she grapples with a landscape altered by human hands and discover how both Lady and humankind restore balance to the environment.
