From the bestselling authors of Atlas Obscura and Gastro Obscura comes Wild Life, a nature book like no other---a dazzling, over-the-top collection of the world's most extraordinary wild species that takes you to all seven continents and beyond. It's more than a field guide-it's an adventure.

From the curious minds of Atlas Obscura, authors of #1 New York Times bestselling Atlas Obscura and Gastro Obscura, comes an unputdownable celebration of the world's living wonders. Learn how dung beetles navigate by the stars, and trees communicate through their roots. Meet one of the strongest animals in the world: the puny peacock mantis shrimp. Pay your respects to a 44,000 year old shrub, float along flying rivers, and explore a garbage dump overseen by endangered storks. There are first person interviews: hear from a honey hunter and his avian partners, a scientist working to find the world's only ocean-dwelling insects, and an offshore radio DJ who is at the heart of the local fishing community. Examine old examples of bird song notation written on sheet music.

Featuring over 500 extraordinary plants, animals, and natural phenomena, with illustrations and photos on every page, the book takes readers around the globe-from Antarctic deserts to lush jungles, and into the deepest fathoms of the ocean and the hearts of our densest cities. Teeming with detail and wildly entertaining, Wild Life reinvigorates our sense of wonder, awe and amazement about the incredible creatures we share our planet with.

Skincare and Hair Care Experience with This Cyperus Rotundus Oil
This cyperus rotundus oil has a lightweight texture with good fluidity, it absorbs quickly when applied to the face, leaving no greasy or heavy feeling, even for combination-oily skin, I mainly use it for facial moisturizing and body care, after washing my face, I warm 2-3 drops in my palms and press it into my skin, and it doesn’t cause pilling when applying makeup afterward, leaving my skin soft and smooth, for hair care, after using it consistently for a month, the hair on my underarms and limbs has become finer, and the growth rate has slowed down significantly, so I don’t need to remove hair frequently, my skin also doesn’t get rough from frequent shaving, there’s no stinging or burning sensation during use, making it safe for sensitive skin, and the light aloe scent is fresh and pleasant, the dropper design is convenient, allowing precise dosage control to avoid waste, in addition to face and body, I also use it for scalp care, after washing my hair, I massage a few drops into my scalp, which relieves dryness and makes my hair smoother and shinier, overall, it delivers noticeable results for both skincare and hair care, with a comfortable user experience.

Absorbs into the skin well and no irritation so far
I bought this Cyperus Rotundus oil to try out, and the 1.85 oz bottle is a good size for me. The oil has a light botanical scent that is pleasant and not too strong. I have applied it a few times and found that it is very easy to use with the included dropper. It absorbs into the skin well and I have noticed no irritation at all, which is important for my daily routine. The bottle arrived quickly and was packaged securely so there were no leaks. It is a practical addition to my shelf, and the glass container feels solid. This product does exactly what it says on the label and provides a straightforward way to use a natural oil. It is a functional and simple purchase that meets my needs perfectly.

Smooth skin without the post-shave itch
I’ve always had issues with my skin feeling super irritated after I shave my legs, so I started applying this Cyperus Rotundus oil right after hopping out of the shower. The quality of the blend is impressive—it’s got jojoba and almond oil too, so it feels very nourishing rather than just sitting on top of the skin. It absorbs quickly enough that I can put on my leggings and head to the gym without feeling like a greaseball. The functionality as a hair inhibitor is a nice bonus. I’ve noticed the hair on my shins seems to be coming back a bit softer and less stubbly than before. For a 55 ml bottle, the value for money is solid since you only need a few drops to cover a large area. It’s a great find for anyone who deals with that annoying sandpaper feeling a day after waxing. My roommate even started using it on her arms because it’s fragrance-free and doesn't mess with her perfume.

Lightweight oil that fits into a simple routine
I started using this oil as part of my regular skincare routine, mainly applying it to areas like my arms and face after showering. The texture feels light and spreads easily without leaving a heavy residue. I noticed it absorbs fairly quickly, which makes it convenient for daily use. It also has a mild scent that is not overwhelming. I like that it includes plant based ingredients, and it leaves my skin feeling soft after application.
