Description

For centuries, we've been fascinated by snakes and their behavior towards, and danger to, humans. Snakes combines vivid color photography and interesting, entertaining text that details the lives of a variety of snakes in an enlightening, and often amusing, book. In nontechnical language, David Badger presents fascinating snake lore from across the centuries, and describes everything from the physical traits and reproductive habits of snakes to territorial behavior and life span. Featuring 100 full-color photographs, of everything from garter snakes, rattlesnakes, and vipers to cobras, pythons and anacondas, by renowned nature photographer John Netherton, Snakes also includes an intriguing appendix that explains how he managed to capture such amazing shots.
