Short Description
WHALES & DOLPHINS provides a richly illustrated and thoroughly researched celebration of the best-loved and most misunderstood mammals on our planet. Although these wonderful mammals have always been thought of as possessing unusual gifts, it has only been in recent decades that their remarkable intelligence has been truly recognized as a scientific fact. WHALES & DOLPHINS provides an informative and colorful portrait of these beautiful creatures, covering many diverse species, from the porpoises, the smallest of the whale family, to the compact minke whale, to the colossal sperm whale, the largest of the toothed whales and to the slender, streamlined dolphins that seem to take so much pleasure from human contact. Taking a scientific look at the lifestyles of these beautiful creatures, topics such as their humanlike body temperature while in icy water, courtship and mating, giving birth, and feeding
in cooperative groups are demystified and explained. Illuminating in both words and remarkable pictures, WHALES & DOLPHINS is just one title in the acclaimed Creatures of the Ocean series. For those who want to delve into the amazing and sometimes mysterious world of ocean life, these books are a wonderful resource filled with scientific fact and beautiful photography.
