World's Most Deadly Animals
All over the world, there are animals that use their venom, claws, jaws, and more to take down prey. From ambush killers like crocodiles to lions who stalk and pounce to kill their prey, this book has it all. Up-close photographs of deadly animals readers likely would never see in person, like the terrifying Brazilian wandering spider, accompany detailed facts about how dangerous each animal is as well as their size, body adaptations, and habitat. The relative danger to people is covered, particularly for animals, like hippos, that are known to harm many people.
Tooth and Nail: Deadly Jaws and Claws
Plenty of predators use their monstrous jaws and piercing claws to attack their prey, but many creatures wield these adaptations as defensive mechanisms, too. Readers may be surprised that an animal as cute as the red panda can fiercely protect itself from a snow leopard and that theres a kind of frog that can jab its version of a bony claw through its skin. Every animal needs to have some kind of weapon if they want to survive in a wild world. Illustrative photographs, fun fact boxes, and a concluding graphic organizer support and enhance this high-interest volume.
