The Frog with Self-Cleaning Feet

An extraordinary and highly amusing menagerie of bizarre animal facts and tales from an award-winning BBC wildlife film-maker.

Wild animals do the most extraordinary things. Some are exceptionally bright, use tools, and solve complex problems. Others are devious: they cheat, steal, and run protection rackets. There are animals with enormous appetites and those that self-medicate.

Then we come across the extreme travellers: the highest flyers, the deepest divers, and the fastest runners. But which animal is the most venomous, and which the most dangerous? Which has the loudest voice, the longest tongue, the biggest eyes, or the most powerful bite? How do animals tell the time? How did the zebra get those stripes? And what is the most mysterious animal on Earth?

The Frog with Self-cleaning Feet is a miscellany of fascinating animal anecdotes, facts, and figures. The weird, the wonderful, and the downright unbelievable of the animal world - you couldn't make it up!
