Did you know the stonefish is the most venomous fish species to swim in our oceans? Better not get too close--it has 13 dorsal fin spines that release deadly toxins when the fish gets into threatening situations. In Sharks & Underwater Predators, you'll learn about the dwarf lantern shark, which is so small it can fit in the palm of your hand; the whale shark, which grows up to 40 feet in length and is the largest known fish species in the oceans today; the great white shark, the oceans' top predator and capable of chewing up dolphins and seals with its 300 teeth; and much more.
Arranged by continent, Snakes offers an engaging pictorial introduction to these prehistoric predators. Find out about the black mamba, which is feared because it possesses an extremely potent venom that kills most of its victims--animal and human; see the banded krait, whose venom is a neurotoxin that induces instant paralysis; learn about the reticulated python, the world's longest constrictor, regularly reaching over 20 feet; and much more.
