Throughout human history gladiators have fought in various arenas
for the enjoyment of others. Yet even the greatest of human
champions would last mere seconds against some of nature's
nightmares. Few people would fail to recognise the killing
capability of a great white shark. However, is it without peer?
Does it have anything to fear from any of the ocean's other
predators? Similarly, few people would doubt the killing capability
of the legendary Tyrannosaurus rex, but could it eat any dinosaur
it came across? If it had lived in another place and at another
time, would T. Rex have ended up being lunch for something else?
Predator Deathmatch is the first book ever to study apex predators
and actually pose the question of who is/was the ultimate predator
by pitting them against each other. The author has carefully
profiled each contender with a mixture of historical data,
information from the fossil record and current observations of wild
animal behaviour. He whets our appetites with a big fight build-up
prior to a fictional description of the clash itself between two
apex predators. Clashes include Great White Shark vs. Killer Whale,
Polar Bear vs. Siberian Tiger and T. Rex vs. the prehistoric
Supercroc, to name but a few. Each chapter presents the available
facts and then opines to settle the score. Informative, educational
and thoroughly entertaining, Predator Deathmatch presents the
reader with the facts, the myths, and the conjecture on these
mighty predators. Forget Muhammad Ali; open the page and find out
who really is the greatest of all time
