Examining the creatures that inhabit our seas, rivers, lakes and oceans, this encyclopedia takes a journey through the underwater world, uncovering the thousands of species that live and breed in the aquatic environment.
This illustrated catalogue of water animals - from dolphins and whales to marine and freshwater fish - includes descriptions of the physical characteristics, life cycles, survival status and reproductive behaviour of aquatic life. It also examines coral and more primitive marine life forms. (source: Nielsen Book Data)
