| Summary |
"Life isn't always easy, but some organisms take hard living to the extreme. "Things That Make You Go Yuck!: Extreme Living" looks at organisms living in the weirdest of ways: swimming miles deep in the ocean, freezing on icy mountaintops, boiling in hot springs, or even floating in space. You'll also find critters bigger, smaller, softer, longer, and stretchier than you ever thought possible. Whether it's nature's slimiest organizations or the weirdest mutations, "Things That Make You Go Yuck!" celebrates survival of the fittest, grossest, craziest, and creepiest things in nature, proving once and for all that life in the wild is anything but ordinary."-- Provided by publisher. |
