I read this amazing book at the library while my sister was studying for her upcoming big veterinary exam this month-- this book explains about animals' weird behaviors in the nature. This book contains marvelous motion, bizarre breeding, fantastic feeding, devious defenses, puzzling partners and peculiar potions. A caterpillar spins like a wheel away from its predator! I think it's cute! A male clownfish changes into a female if its mate dies. An eagle picks the tortoise up and flies high so it could drop the tortoise to break its shell. An eagle owl puffs up facing down its enemy. A frog and a tarantula becomes friends so the frog picks out ants from the spider's eggs so the spider gives the frog its home and security service. A jaguar chews on a yaje leaf to have hallucinogenic materials which the drug improves a jaguar's senses of smell or eyesight.
