Deadly

Stephen Backshall

£22.00


Did you know that box jellyfish venom can stop a human heart in seconds? Or that modern scorpions' ancestors were longer than the tallest humans? Or that the punching power of a mantis shrimp can shatter bulletproof glass? Drawing on his decades of experience in the field, Steve Backshall takes a heart-poundingly close look at the greatest record breakers in the animal kingdom, determines who would come out on top in a showdown between the deadliest animals to have ever lived, and uncovers all the drama of his adventures in pursuit of all things deadly!
