Wildlife Spectacles: Mass Migrations, Mating Rituals, and Other Fascinating Animal Behaviors
Description
Equal parts nature guide, adventure story, and coffee table book! People are captivated by wild animals-by their strength and their size and by the things they do to stay alive. In "Wildlife Spectacles" zoologist Vladimir Dinets dives deep into this wonder, allowing curious readers to discover just how spectacular wild animals can be. In the rich, fully illustrated pages you'll discover the migration of gray whales along the Pacific coast, the dancing alligators of the Everglades, the synchronized blinking of fireflies near Tennessee, the swarms of feeding bats over the Mississippi River, the blue-glowing scorpions of the Southwest desert, hundreds of wintering tundra swans in New Jersey, and much more. Wildlife Spectacles is an awe-inspiring exploration of the most remarkable displays of animal behavior in North America. Zoologist Vladimir Dinets clearly explains the spectacles, why they happen, and where they can be seen in real life.
