From garter snakes and vipers to boas and pythons,Snakes describes the biology and natural history of this ecologically important group of animals. World-renowned herpetologist Peter Stafford and Natural History Museumexpert David Gower highlight the variety and complexity of this group that includes almost 3,000 living species.Information on habitat, conservation status, and unusual behaviour is also included.Stunningly illustrated thoughout, this comprehensive introduction to the snakes of the world shows that they are an important group of animals that should be valued and admired rather than feared and hated.
