About this book
Celebrating the wonders of the animal world Two aspects of the animal world that never fail to fascinate are the diversity of animal behavior and the phenomenon of long-distance migrations. Both are celebrated in these two beautifully illustrated books. Scientists from around the world have pooled their knowledge to introduce an astonishing array of creatures, revealing the unique ways each species faces the day-to-day challenges of survival, whether by changing sex when necessary or journeying from the polar regions to the warm waters of Baja California. Ambitious in scope, these copiously illustrated volumes are filled with photographs, maps, and drawings. 240 pages, 80 000 words 12 1/4 X 9 1/2 inches (310 X 240 mm) 300 full-color photos, illustrations, maps, and diagrams
