    Lynx Edicions - What Next ?

    Yes. There are some publishers but again no one can beat Lynx in terms of quality and comprehensiveness. Well, that is totally different topic. These animals are with us from hundreds of thousands of years and are useful to humans. Yes, some breeds have health issues and look odd but again...

    Lynx Edicions - What Next ?

    Well, there are many people out there who are interested in such a work(s). Just because we are lovers of wild animals, it does not mean that people are not interested in domestic animals and their varieties, types, breeds or mutations etc.

    Lynx Edicions - What Next ?

    Wish Lynx would come up with All the Domesticated Mammals of the World or / and All the Domesticated Animals of the World so that we can have a solid reference of what humans have "created" in the last 5,000 years ! P.S. Just got to know that earliest dates suggested for the domestication of...

    Lynx Edicions - What Next ?

    It all depends on Lynx Eds and how they manage to achieve their goal of not letting their quality (which remained excellent throughout the major 2 series they did on HBW and HMW) go down. Actually, if you have a clear vision of your company for its next 20-25 years, then I think there are still...

    Most of time philanthropists donate to Non-Profits. Lynx Edicions is For-Profit business and have been very successful until the covid arrived. Their all-time successful is "All the Birds of the World" of which thousands and thousands of copies are sold so far. They have to re-print it several...

    Lynx Edicions - What Next ?

    Yeah. That is quite sad, as there is no shortage of money and mega-wealthy investors in the world.

    Lynx Edicions - What Next ?

    Yes. Read that. Lets see what future brings. Yes, if I am not wrong, these Guides largely use illustrations from HBW series excluding few exceptions. Definitely these are cheaper to produce as compared to starting a completely new series like Handbook of the Amphibians of the World for which...

    I think Alada will launch their own new website, hence the name and logo that is created for this purpose. On other hand, as Lynx Eds has ended all their publications under their name, hence nothing on their 'coming soon' page.

    Lynx Edicions - What Next ?

    Coming back to original topic, here is a very interesting story on how it all started : https://www.lavanguardia.com/natural/20200913/483451212474/handbook-sargatal-josep-del-hoyo.html Using Google Translate, some paragraphs (about history of HBW) reads something like this : "Before embarking...

    Lynx Edicions - What Next ?

    If we talk about Illegal Wildlife Trade, then there would be no Handbook of the Mammals of the World (HMW) by Lynx Edicions ! Not to mention, their recent inexpensive checklist (compared to complete series) because many mammal species are already included in Illegal Wildlife Trade. For example...

    Lynx Edicions - What Next ?

    Everyone knows the high-quality book series of Handbook of the Birds of the World (HBW) and Handbook of the Mammals of the World (HMW) by Lynx Edicions. I know this is a Bird Forum but I do hope, most members here will agree with me that there's a whole Natural World out there besides birds...
