A fascinating look at some of the strangest creatures from all around the world! 

Some animals are masters of disguise, mimicing their surroundings beautifully. Others have developed clever tricks to hide from predators and sneak up on prey. Discover a blind dragon that eats once a decade, and a leafy dragon that looks a whole lot like a horse. Spot a butterfly that’s almost invisible, and a big-nosed monkey that bellyflops into rivers. Meet a snake that can fly and an armadillo that’s the colour of fairy floss.

With detailed illustrations, striking photographs and curious facts, it’s a brilliant introduction to the freakier side of wildlife.

  • Packed with fun facts, photos and illustrations from Australian Geographic
  • Features bizarre and brilliant species from across the globe
