How Snakes and Other Reptiles Attack (Paperback)

Some reptiles nab their prey with their tongues, while others use their sharp teeth and strong jaws. Snakes, on the other hand, primarily use constriction to squeeze their prey to death, and some snakes even kill their prey by injecting them with venom through a bite! In this volume, readers explore fascinating hunting techniques used by snakes and other reptiles to capture their meals, as well as how their prey might protect themselves from entering a predator's stomach. Vivid photographs of these predators and prey combine with age-appropriate text boxes to create a reading experience that's as intriguing as it is educational.
