Description:
An acclaimed botanist reveals our 'plant blindness' when thinking of conservation, with his obsessive search for Rafflesia in the rainforests of SE Asia
As a child, Chris Thorogood dreamed of seeing Rafflesia - the plant with the world's largest flowers. He crafted life-size replicas in an abandoned cemetery, carefully bringing them to life with paper and paint. Today he is a botanist at the University of Oxford's Botanic Garden and has dedicated his life to studying the biology of such extraordinary plants, working alongside botanists and foresters in Southeast Asia to document these huge, mysterious blooms.
Pathless Forest is the story of his journey to study and protect this remarkable plant - a biological enigma, still little understood, which invades vines as a leafless parasite and steals its food from them. We join him on a mind-bending adventure, as he faces a seemingly impenetrable barrier of weird, wonderful and sometimes fearsome flora; finds himself smacking off leeches, hanging off vines, wading through rivers; and following indigenous tribes into remote, untrodden rainforests in search of Rafflesia's ghostly, foul-smelling blooms, more than a metre across.
We depend on plants for our very existence, but two in five of the world's species are threatened with extinction - nobody knows how many species of Rafflesia might already have disappeared through deforestation. Pathless Forest is part thrilling adventure story and part an inspirational call to action to safeguard a fast-disappearing wilderness. To view plants in a different way, as vital for our own

Durable materials & highly recommended
My small dog loves this toy. It’s well made & I’d recommend it. The tail didn’t last, but it’s still worth the money.

This toy won my dogs hearts.
Color: Brown & Grey
I bought the monkey and elephant for my 2 large dogs. When opening the box from amazon, one of my dogs grabbed the monkey right out of my hand and took off with it. My other big brute was not to be left out, he grabbed the elephant and went the other way. They haven’t parted with either toy since. These were able to hold up to the rough play these two knuckleheads can get going. The rope is perfect for them to hang on to. The head of the toy does have filling, although not too much. The squeaky is buried inside the stuffing. One dog did manage to rip into the head trying to get to the squeaky part. I just took out the rest of the stuffing and squeaky and this toy is still his favorite. It’s a minor inconvenience to pick up the stuffing but worth it to see him this happy. I’d recommend keeping an eye on your pet when they first receive the toy. Then you’ll be able to see if they’re able to pull it apart. It took my big dogs a bit of time to get to it, but one is a mastiff, and the other is a Shepard/husky mix. Those breeds tend to tear every toy apart with time.

Unsafe product falls apart in chunks, choking hazard
Color: Brown & Grey
I bought these toys for my small 11 pound dog
The product fell apart within a couple hours both this is it’s not meant for the description as a durable toy. It comes up in chunks and can cause choking. I returned the toys to make a point that I’m not gonna buy a product that can hold my pet and it’s unsafe for the advertise use.
