How Animals Communicate (Wild Animal Planet)

How Animals Communicate (Wild Animal Planet)

by Michael Chinery (Author)

Synopsis

Many animals have a much more limited interaction with others of their own species than we do, but all must communicate at some point in their lives. If nothing else, males and females need to find each other and mate, and males try to dominate their rivals at mating time. This guide covers all these scenarios and presents snapshots of some of the most social animals on earth, explaining how their communities work. It also looks at some of the animals that are usually solitary and explains why they find it better to live alone - and what happens when they do meet up. This series is geared towards children and may act as a supplement to school studies. Each book presents a detailed examination of a range of subjects including animal habitats and survival skills. They all examine a wide variety of animals from insects and birds to sea animals and include colour photographs by top wildlife photographers.
