Description
The Unexpected Truth About Animals: Stoned Sloths, Lovelorn Hippos and Other Wild Tales by Lucy Cooke. Lucy Cooke sets the record straight on some of the most enduring animal myths, revealing the surprising truth behind stories like moose getting drunk and penguins 'holding hands'. By exploring the fascinating world of animal behaviour, Cooke shows how our perceptions of the natural world are often shaped by our own values and assumptions. From eels born from sand to swallows hibernating underwater, Cooke's book is a laugh-out-loud exploration of the myths we've created to understand animals. With a healthy dose of humour and a deep understanding of the natural world, this book is a worthwhile read for anyone curious about the creatures that share our planet.
