Have you ever seen a fish that could do a handstand? This is the
story of a quirky and primitive little fish that is famous for two
things: walking on its 'hands' (pectoral fins), and being the first
marine fish anywhere in the word to be listed on the IUCN Red List
of Threatened Species. The Spotted Handfish has survived since the
time of the dinosaurs - until now. Invasive seastars, pollution and
climate change mean that this unique Australian is in real trouble
- raise your hand if you want to know more! Hold On! Saving the
Spotted Handfish is perfect for primary aged readers. Teachers
notes can be downloaded for free from the CSIRO Publishing website.
Marine environment story, narrated by a handfish. Showcases
handfish biology and ecology, in addition to threats and their
conservation plight, and importantly, how science is stepping in to
save the day. Includes Fact File section and a glossary.
