Animal Curiosities

Who has ever heard of the creeping salamander, the rabbit-nosed bandicoot, or the sloth anteater? Biologist Lisa Signorile introduces 37 quirky species - from insects to reptiles, birds, and mammals - and presents unexpected surprises along the way: Shrink down to your bed, where you will come face to face with a dust mite. Meet real vampires, fall in love with tiny pouch rats, and marvel at Elysia, a hybrid creature of snail and plant. The book was originally published in German under the title "Missgeschicke der Evolution.".
