Animal Tragic

Talks about the popular misconceptions of wildlife through the centuries. This work includes: the belief that swallows hibernated under riverside mud, which explained their winter absence; the theory that lemmings hurl themselves over cliffs, a myth encouraged by Walt Disney whose film about them faked their apparent suicide; and more.
