About this product

Product Information

This is the story of 4,000 species; species that have outlived the dinosaurs and conquered the farthest places on Earth. And species that vary from the smallest, the two-inch pygmy shrew, to the largest, the blue whale; from the slowest, the sloth, to the swiftest, the cheetah; from the least attractive, the naked mole rat, to the most irresistible, a human baby. Some of the animals in this diverse group includ- The Insect Eaters- mammals, like armadillos, bats and anteaters, make meals of the most abundant creature on Earth. The Omnivores- many mammals are able to adapt their diets according to season, or have learned to hibernate through the winter when food is sparse. The Return to the Water- ocean mammals can take advantage of huge food stocks; how do seals, dolphins and whales breathe air yet swim to great depths? The Tree-Dwellers- creatures such as flying squirrels and colugos travel by gliding high among the tree-tops, but sloths hardly move at all. The Grasping Hands- only one group of mammals, the primates, have hands to grasp branches and pluck their food.

    My experience was positive re the seller, but negative towards the tracking service which claimed it had been delivered on 17 December. That was to the Danish Postal Service and it arrived in my hands earlier this afternoon. The information was so misleading that I received 2 reminders from ebay about not leaving feedback. The item was as described and well packaged. I will now get the chance to read the story about yet another character in the Blaydon Races song and my home town.

    The item came as described. The postage of this item is pretty good. The packaging of this item could be way way better as coming overseas in just a plastic bag is far from perfect. The value of this item is worth it. Great Item, Good Seller, Thanks!! A++
