Zoology of the future or the world after man
Illustrations from the wonderful book Desmond Morris "AFTER MAN. A ZOOLOGY OF THE FUTURE ". I can hardly better than the author to convey the meaning of the book: "... the world of the future would be described as a time-traveler from the present day, who made the trip to the world of that time and studied its fauna. Such a traveler will know something about the life of modern animals, so that he can describe things with reference to the species of animals, familiar to the reader. His report is written in the present tense, as if addressed to fellow travelers in time to go to the same period and wish to explore the world for yourself. Sit back, fellow time travelers, and enjoy the dramatic spectacle of the evolution of life on your planet. »
