  This title reveals how the special characteristics of all types of animals, from butterflies and bugs to snakes, bears, big cats and sharks, allow them to survive in the wild. Learn how the impressive rows of spiky teeth make crocodile jaws a lethal weapon, and how the arched bill and long talons of an osprey give the bird an amazing ability to pluck fish from the water. There are special focus spreads on particular areas of interest, from fireflies to how chimps use tools, as well as Did you know spirals with nuggets of amazing information.
