Wild animals have developed a whole range of strategies to ensure their offspring reach maturity and can then breed future generations themselves.
This book takes pregnant mothers as its starting point, and looks at how and where they lay their eggs or give birth. It follows the offspring through to adulthood as they discover or develop the skills they need to survive.
In this amazing book, you will be able to compare and contrast these vital life stages and processes between many different groups of animals - from insects, reptiles and birds through to the mammals of both land and sea.
