***

The sea monsters on medieval and Renaissance maps, whether swimming vigorously, gamboling amid the waves, attacking ships, or simply displaying themselves for our appreciation, are one of the most visually engaging elements on these maps, and yet they have never been carefully studied. The subject is important not only in the history of cartography, art, and zoological illustration, but also in the history of the geography of the "marvelous" and of western conceptions of the ocean. Moreover, the sea monsters depicted on maps can supply important insights into the sources, influences, and methods of the cartographers who drew or painted them. In this highly-illustrated book the author analyzes the most important examples of sea monsters on medieval and Renaissance maps produced in Europe, beginning with the earliest mappaemundi on which they appear in the 10th century and continuing to the end of the 16th century.

“[B]eautifully illustrated. . . . People interested in maps, cryptozoology, folklore, and arcane zoology and zoological history will want to check it out.” ― Scientific American

“Medieval and Renaissance map scholar, Chet Van Duzer, backed by the British Library as publisher, have teamed up to produce a spectacular new book, Sea Monsters on Medieval and Renaissance Maps, a topic, oddly enough, for which there is little by way of real precedent. This book will become the sea monster authority by default. Although this beautiful book is a product of academic quality, it is very readable and accessible and requires no prior knowledge.” ― BibliOdyssey

One-and-done treat for giant breeds (our 186lb foster approves)
Flavor Name: Pig Ears, Size: 12 Count (Pack of 1), Flavor Name: Pig Ears, Size: 12 Count (Pack of 1)
We foster a 186lb Saint Bernard, and finding treats that actually satisfy her without requiring half the bag has been a challenge. These pig ears? Game changer. What makes these work: - ONE ear = one satisfied dog (compared to other treats where the bag says “35 per day” and she’d still beg for more) - Keeps her busy for about 5 minutes of focused chewing - She does a little excited dance when she sees the bag—can’t even sit, just wiggles - Zero crumbs or mess because she devours every single bit, then spends the next hour sniffing around hoping another one appears - She immediately grabs it and heads to her favorite bed to settle in—doesn’t move until it’s gone The only “issue”: There’s a bit of oil/greasiness when handling them, but nothing a quick hand wash can’t fix (Mrs. Meyer’s Cucumber soap works great, just saying). Bottom line: If you have a giant breed and you’re tired of buying treats that require multiple servings or disappear in one bite, these are it. One ear, complete satisfaction, Subscribe & Save so they just show up like a present you forgot you ordered. Our girl Ellie gives them 186 pounds of approval.

Size of Ears is Inconsistent
Flavor Name: Pig Ears, Size: 12 Count (Pack of 1)
A bit disappointing with the size, 1 large pig ear, the rest small and not actual whole pig ears. But Doggo enjoys them. No problems with digestion for him.

Just what the pet parent ordered
Flavor Name: Pig Ears, Size: 12 Count (Pack of 1)
As a furbaby parent of 2 huskies who are chewers in their first 3 yrs of their life, this product helps a lot. Very healthy, dogs love them, safe, and chewy. Definitely a winner. Love the price for my pockets. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed and your pup will thank you too.

Smell of plastic
Flavor Name: Pig Ears, Size: 12 Count (Pack of 1)
These had a very off-putting smell right out of the bag - each one smelled like plastic, almost as if they’d been sitting in the packaging for too long. My dog wouldn’t touch them at all, which says everything. Would not purchase again.

AWESOME HEALTHY DENTAL TREATS for any dog.
Pattern Name: Half Ears (40-pack)
THESE ARE AWESOME!! Though I need to cut these pig ears with an industrial pair of sheers (cutting scissors), my three 6 lb Chihuahuas LOVE these treats. It also keeps them busy chewing so daddy can get some work done. They are most importantly great for cleaning my dogs tiny Chihuahua teeth. 😁😉. These are a MUST BUY for anyone seeking a healthy, affordable, teeth-cleaning option for any size dog.
