Here are the oddballs of the animal world: from weird behaviours to strange adaptions, unusual ways of moving, extraordinary camouflage and - to us - the downright ugly. Some of these creatures stand out, while others artfully blend in. It features over 240 of the earth’s most interesting and fascinating creatures including the naked mole-rat, blind snakes, hammer-headed bats, blowfish, Boobies, the dumbo octopus, goblin sharks, vampire squid, bone-eating vultures, hagfish, fairy armadillos, proboscis monkeys and the great potoo. Myke Mollard takes us on a visual adventure to discover the world’s most weird, oddly unsettling, but often exquisitely adapted creatures, showing us that getting outdoors can reach beyond your wildest imagination!
