Animals at Risk

This book focuses on the plight of different animal species threatened with extinction - from elephants, whales and turtles to toads, bats and butterflies. Each spread describes a different animal, looking at the way they live and exploring some fascinating facts about each one - such as the sonar communication of bats and the songs that whales sing. Each spread explains why these animals are in danger of dying out and shows the reader what can be done to prevent further destruction.
