ADVENTURES WITH ENDANGERED ANIMALS [EPUB ebook] 

Adventures with Endangered Animals is an immersive encounter with more than 15 unique creatures in danger of being lost to our world forever. Why do red-crowned cranes dance? How is the Brazilian three-banded armadillo able to turn into a ball? Why are the northern fur seals decreasing in number? Swim with the world’s largest fish, the whale shark. Admire the rare and beautiful baiji. And play with the Borneo elephants in the Kinabatangan River. From the freezing ocean waters to bamboo forests, and from tropical forests to nature reserves, experience these elusive endangered creatures as never before!
