Drunk flies and stoned dolphins : a trip through the world of animal intoxication / Oné R. Pagán. by Pagán, Oné R., author. Dallas, TX : BenBella Books, [2021] Subjects Animals -- Drug use. ISBN:  9781950665372 (paperback) : 1950665372 (paperback) Description:  xiii, 303 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm Requests:  0 Summary:  "From parrots to primates, consuming medicinal chemicals is an instinctive behavior that helps countless organisms fight infection and treat disease. But the similarities don't end there: Like us, many creatures also consume substances that have no apparent benefit ... except for inducing intoxication. In fact, animals have been using drugs for recreational purposes since prehistoric times... In this book, you'll get an eye-opening glimpse into the mind-altering behavior of the non-human members of the animal kingdom, spanning insects to elephants--including the dolphin species that apparently likes to pass around an intoxicating pufferfish as if they were sharing a joint. Combining fascinating science with humor and enthusiasm, Pagán's latest is full of the kind of unforgettable stories and odd facts that you'll find yourself repeating to everyone you meet. From fruit fly happy hour to the evolutionary reasons behind nature's drugs, Drunk Flies and Stoned Dolphins takes you on a trip through the colorful world of animal intoxication--and along the way, explores what this science reveals about the surprising connections between all the world's creatures."--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hana P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 591.5 Pa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 591.5 Pa Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua-Kona Public Library Adult Nonfiction 591.5 Pa Checked In Add Copy to MyList
