This series carefully looks at all aspects of these animals: habitat, food, adaptations, reproduction, distribution, endangered status, etc. A major aspect of these books is that they look at how we know about the animals, through scientific observations and studies both in the wild and in captivity, and also acknowledge what isn't known. Another discussion covers what we are doing to save or control them. Suitable for 7-12 year olds.
These are just a few of the many adaptations explored in this leveled title for young readers. Alongside the text are bright photos and special features that highlight the animals range, physical adaptations, and diet.
