Features: Library of Humanity and Nature. Have you ever seen strange yet beautiful and adorable wild creatures like peccaries, guanacos, and Tasmanian wolves in danger? Have you witnessed the agile grace of the Arabian leopard hiding cleverly in the rocks of Western Asia and the swift speed of the four-toed hyena galloping across the grasslands of South Africa? Do you know the beautiful, long-lived, and loyal blue parrots, which are poached and sold in the market for over 20,000 euros per pair? Have you heard of the "werewolf" called the Malagasy fosa that mates parallel on the same tree every year to reproduce? The author, a French veterinarian couple, has endured great hardships to capture their authentic wild lives and has written a series of insider stories that are little known to the outside world.
