Hardcover
(Mason Crest Publishers Jan. 1, 2018)
BIG CATS is a lively account of the most remarkable and fascinating of land predators, the worlds hunting cats. With their retractable claws, gaping jaws filled with fearsome teeth, alert reflexes, and muscular limbs, big cats are formidable predators as well as familiar and beautiful mammals. As successful predators on the plains or in the mountains and jungles of the world, big cats play an important role in maintaining the overall health of prey animal populations. Discover the ferocious jungle tiger, a feared and often misunderstood man-eater; the ever-popular lion, the king of beasts and the pride of the African grasslands; the elegant and agile cheetah, the worlds fastest land mammal; the stealthy, forest-dwelling mountain lion; and other cats, such as the leopard, the lynx, and the bobcat. Entertaining and informative, BIG CATS is just one title from the series Animals in the Wild. Anyone seeking a better understanding of the animal kingdom, especially these majestic creatures, will enjoy this book and the entire series. Each title in this series includes color photos throughout, and back matter including: an index and further reading lists for books and internet resources. Educational Videos are offered in the back through the use of QR codes, that, when scanned, takes the student to an online video showing a video relating to the book topic.
