Ever wondered what animals eat This book has all the answers!
Did you know that a hyena's teeth are strong enough to break elephant bones Or that ostriches don't chew their food so they eat stones to grind it in their stomach Or that pelicans have airbags that help them to float and fish Believe it or not, there are not a lot of books that answer these questions!
Animals need their food just as much as people do. But they eat in very different ways than we do... some eat plants and their mouths are adapted for chewing a lot; some attack and hunt and need sharp claws and fangs to do so, and others just have the strangest ways of digesting their food!
The piranha can grow back teeth in just 100 days, the baby koalas - called Joeys - eat their mother's poo as it helps them get used to digesting plant fibre. Some spiders can eat lizards and mice and inject paralyzing venom into their prey.
This book shares hundreds of fascinating facts about animals' behaviour: from what they eat and how they hunt, to their favourite snacking time and how they reproduce and communicate.
