Reviews

From exquisite orchids, exotic bees and industrious ants to fascinating animals such as chameleons, ocelots, bonobos and bats, the book reveals the complex interactions. - Outdoor Photography A visually stunning book that will have wildlife lovers enchanted and mesmerised, it's well worth adding to your collection. - Amateur Photography Christian Ziegler has a very particular eye, and whether he's shooting ants eating a millipede or a group of bats that look as though they could happily eat us, he always chooses the odd and disturbing image over the obvious. Daisy Dent's accompanying text is full of good stuff. Did you know that bats have nipples in their armpits? Or that beetles fight their enemies by shooting gas out of their anuses? - Marcus Berkmann, Mail Online
