Carnivores Michael Leach

Some of the animal kingdom's smartest and most deadly hunters are mammals. This attractive book introduces readers to many fascinating mammals that either hunt for their food or are related to animals that do. This carnivorous clan includes wolves, otters, and lions. Readers will survey plant-eating pandas and fruit bats alongside fierce hunters like polar bears and vampire bats. Featuring fun facts and incredible photographs, readers will uncover the mongoose's closest relative, the reason bats hang upside down, and the function of a cat's whiskers.
