About the Book

Tread carefully into the world of big cats, and stare into the yellow eyes of a killer as we track down incredible predators like the Amur leopard, the characteristic Eurasian lynx, and the enigmatic black panther. We travel from the snowy mountains of Central Asia to urban areas of Northern America to discover what goes bump in the night, with beautiful illustrations and photography of the most elusive members of the big cat family. In the second part of this book we take you on a safari to the heart of Africa to meet the most iconic creatures, from the flamboyant flamingo to the regal rhino.
