Discover the primary adaptations that make predators into fearsome foe.

Hammerhead sharks pin their prey to the seabed, great whites have monstrous jaws filled with razor sharp teeth, groupers team up with wrasse in coordinated attacks and moray eels prefer to ambush their victims. Different techniques and adaptations are examined in detail, showing how fish predators are perfectly suited to their habitat and to the prey they pursue. Each spread has dramatic photographs and looks in detail at one mammal predator and focuses on its primary weapon, such as speed, teeth or ambush.

The prey animal shows us how it attempts to evade certain death, whether through camouflage, a speedy retreat or safety in numbers. Stat panels give readers a quick overview of how predator and prey stack up against each other. Predators are awe-inspiring.

Whether they are fast, strong, armed with claws or teeth, cunning, patient or venomous, they are all masters of the art of killing their prey. Young readers will love the Predator Vs Prey series with its amazing photographs and the details about super-senses or incredible adaptations. These books also highlight the variety of life on Earth and reinforces how animals are adapted to their habitats.
