A Watcher's Guide to How Animals Act and Why. Biomimicry is a new science that studies nature's best ideas and then imitates these designs and processes to solve human problems. The core idea is that nature, creative by necessity, has already solved many of the problems we are grappling with. Biomimicry is a rare hopeful note to counter the modern chorus of environmental warnings. The Canadian Museum of Nature is custodian of Canada's natural heritage collection of plants, animals, fossils and minerals.
