內容簡介
這是一部將「地理地圖」與「野生動物」完美結合的視覺盛宴!《Animal Atlas》以地球的七大洲與蔚藍海洋為經緯,帶領讀者展開一場跨越全球的生態探索之旅。從寒冷的南北極地、茂密的亞馬遜雨林、廣闊的非洲薩瓦納草原,到神祕的深海世界,書中用精美的大幅地圖,標示出各個氣候區與棲息地中代表性動物的分布足跡。
本書打破了傳統科普書的枯燥框架,將繁複的動物學、生物地理學知識,轉化為直觀、具象的圖像語言。讀者不僅能「按圖索驥」找出動物們的家,還能深入了解牠們為了適應特殊環境所演化出的奇特生存本領、飲食習慣與遷徙路線。
Explore the animal kingdom like never before with the Animal Atlas from Lonely Planet Kids. Unfold maps to reveal animals from every continent and lift the flaps to see their unique environments and habitats.
Discover a world of animal facts, life-size photos and creature features - from a bear's paw and a baby turtle to an anteater's tongue and a goliath birdeater, the world's heaviest spider. EEK! All drawn to scale so you can measure yourself against them.
You' ll find animals living on freezing ice caps, high on snowy mountain peaks, in parched deserts and down in the dark depths of the ocean. They fly through the air, crawl among trees, burrow into the earth, plunge through the seas, and prowl the forests - and range from the tiniest of insects too small to see without a magnifying glass to the blue whale, which is longer than three buses!
