Discover why some Japanese macaques wash their food before eating it, find out how the fearsome canine teeth of male baboons ward off potential rivals, and learn what makes a bush baby successful in its nocturnal life. This book introduces young natural history enthusiasts to unusual lifestyles, clever behaviour and a range of habitats, with plenty of wildlife photographs.
