You could enjoy this book for the fabulous photographs alone. Beautiful full page portraits of mammals, birds, frogs... Each photograph accompanies a description of a recent finding in zoology, botany or ecology. Whole new species have been discovered, and behaviours that amazed or delighted me, including those of devious caterpillars and elephants averse to red. This text is sometimes tantalisingly brief.
