Did you know that one blow of a grizzly bear can crush the skull of an elk? That a small fish called a piranha can be more dangerous than a shark?
This book is about animals that few people like and nobody loves. Some of these animals are dangerous. Some are pests. Others may seem strange because of their appearance.
However, it's likely that not everything you've heard or read about these animals is true. Some animals just have bad reputations that are not based on fact. Animals are not bad or evil - they just do what they must to survive.
You may never love a rattlesnake, a cockroach, or an octopus - but this book may help you begin to understand and respect them for what they are.
