درباره این کتاب:
Discover the
astonishing truth about our aquatic
cousins: how they think and what they
know, their experiences and unique
behaviours, and the many things we have in
common.
There are 33,000 species of fish on our
planet, and that number is constantly
increasing. In context, that is more than
all the species of mammals, birds,
amphibians and reptiles added together,
making fish the most numerous vertebrates
on our planet. Waters worldwide are
teeming with these elusive creatures, but
how much do we really know about
them?
Grouped into thematic chapters – including
the Dangerous and Deadly,Unusual Giants
and Mini Marvels – in this comprehensive
book biologist Doug
Mackay-Hope profiles the secret lives
of 50 of our most interesting underwater
cousins in an insightful and
myth-busting study, complete with charming
watercolour diagrams and expert insights.
Learn about the White-Spotted Pufferfish,
whose spines hide a deadly toxin, or the
Ocellate River Stingray, who lurks in the
rivers of South America and who can kill
with just one touch of it's barbed
stinger. Meet Bargibant's Pygmy Seahorse,
who measures just 2cm in length, as well
as the enourmous Whale Shark, which grows
to around 13m in length. Be fascinated by
the wierd creatures of the deep ocean,
such as the Peter's Elephantnosed Fish or
the kaleidescopic Picasso's Triggerfish.
With a foreword by Jeremy Wade, presenter
of River Monsters and Mighty Rivers, and
official fish aficionado, this book is a
complete compendium of fascinating fish
facts, with maps showing where in the
globe they can be found, plus facts on how
they live, hunt and escape predators.
Beautiful illustrations and photographs
accompany each entry, as well as
interesting facts on how they evolved to
adapt tochanging environments, making this
book the perfect guide to all things
aquatic..
