Product Details
Overview
Creatura brings together vivid photography and sharply observed storytelling to uncover 50 of the the quirkiest inhabitants of Australia and the surrounding region.
Inside, readers will meet creatures so peculiar they feel almost impossible: the tiny, mouse-like ningaui, one of Australia’s least-known marsupials; the flamboyant hairy squat lobster, whose neon fuzz makes it look more like a fantastical invention than a crustacean; and Victoria’s riflebird, a rainforest showman that performs one of the most mesmerising mating dances in the natural world. Alongside these, the book shines a light on countless other oddballs – masters of camouflage, creatures with baffling behaviors, and species whose adaptations push the boundaries of the plausible.
Through accessible explanations, surprising facts, and a voice that balances scientific insight with delight and humor, the book reveals how alien yet deeply relatable these animals can be. Each entry offers a snapshot of evolutionary brilliance, ecological importance, and sheer strangeness, brought to life through stunning photographs and engaging mini-essays.
A perfect companion for wildlife enthusiasts, armchair naturalists, and anyone who loves learning about the marvelous peculiarities of the natural world.
