A gorgeously illustrated guide to the incredible diversity of
snakes around the world Snakes are found on every continent except
Antarctica and have evolved to occupy a vast range of habitats,
from mountains to oceans and deserts to rain forests. Snakes of the
World explores their extraordinary diversity, with an in-depth
introduction covering anatomy, behavior, habitats, reproduction,
conservation, and other essential topics. This expert guide also
includes profiles of some of the approximately 4,000 species of
snakes, featuring examples from every family and subfamily. Each
family profile highlights the remarkable appearance,
characteristics, and lifestyle of notable snake species. Covering
how snakes use venom or constriction to subdue their prey, how a
snake's appearance can aid camouflage or boast of its killing
capacity, and how habitat destruction is jeopardizing the future of
many species, Snakes of the World is an invaluable guide to these
fascinating reptiles. Features more than 200 stunning color
photographs Presents species profiles with a commentary,
distribution map, and table of information Includes examples from
