When it comes to wild animals, everyone knows that there are
certain things you just don’t do. It's clearly a bad idea to
tease a tiger, pull a python's tail, or bother a black widow
spider. But do you know how dangerous it can be to pet a
platypus, collect a cone shell, or touch a tang fish? Some
creatures have developed unusual ways of protecting
themselves or catching prey, and this can make them
unexpectedly hazardous to your health.
In this dynamic and fascinating
picture book by Steve Jenkins, you'll find out what you
should never do if you encounter one of these
surprisingly dangerous animals.
