Written by 70 scientific experts, this extensive reference work presents a myriad of facts on predation, giving a fresh perspective on the natural order of predators and their prey. Entries on more than 500 animal species provide information on each subject's hunting and eating behaviour, while placing the animal within a larger ecological context. The species have been carefully selected so that their peculiarities can be cross-referenced with others to cover a range of over 2000 species. The aim of the text is to correct misconceptions about nature and give the reader an understanding of predation as an integral part of the natural food cycle.
