Product description

Review

This book celebrates the joy of biodiversity and the wonders of nature. It's a wild jaunt through the beautiful & the bizarre, and a perfect eye-opening guide to life for perhaps the strangest known species of them all - Homo Sapiens. --Ziya Tong, WWF Vice President for Canada.

An excellent introduction to some of the more bizarre creatures we share our planet with. Both an entertaining and informative read! Any budding naturalist would benefit from this book being in their collection. --Stephen Eddy, Education officer at Exmoor Zoo

About the Author

Caleb Compton is an author and biosciences graduate from Redruth, Cornwall. Specialising in animal biology in his final year, he completed his degree in 2016 from the University of Exeter. His passion for animals and conservation started whilst watching nature documentaries with his family, presented by the great Sir David Attenborough. In 2013, he created a Twitter account, which brings obscure and bizarre creatures into the spotlight. Starting with just a handful of followers, it has now grown into one of the most popular animal accounts on Twitter.
