Aggressive Predators
Strange, vicious little creatures with
Dracula-like teeth and really bad attitudes because
aggression is a major key to survival. Don' t let the
size fool you, they can pack a whole lot of punch for
their size. Rob Bredl introduces us to Numbats,
Dunnarts, Quolls, Phascogales, Planigales and
Antechinus. These amazing little animals feature high
aggression matched only by their metabolic
rates.
Hunting and stalking their prey is like
watching a top African predator hunt only in fast
forward motion. Rob shows us their needle-like fangs and
ponders their roots in a harsh land where once their
prehistoric ancestors where lumbering giants compared
with their modern, high speed counterparts. Rob also
searches for answers of the extinct 'Marsupial Lion'
being compared to the saber-toothed tiger, and if it is
somehow linked to a mystery of Yeti proportions that has
been lurking the Australian bush for close to a century.
AU$ 26.50.-
