Description

Superheroes, record holders, and fascinating facts from the animal kingdom Welcome to our animal Olympics

The animal world has almost infinite variety. Many of its creatures have strengths similar to superheroes. The world's fastest animals can move at the speed of a race car; one small creature has the strength of a trained weightlifter; the world's strongest animal can lift many times its own weight; and the longest-lived animal survives for several hundred years.

Fastest, slowest, strongest, largest, smallest, longest living, furthest jumping, most dangerous, most beautiful, ugliest, deepest diving--these and many other record holders from the animal kingdom fill this book with unexpected, fascinating facts.
