Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
A fish who deceives her prey with a light dangling in front of her mouth? A bird who leaves her eggs in another bird's nest to be raised? Meet some of the animal kingdom's most wanted criminals! They're all here in this hilarious book of animal case files that include rap sheets, mug shots, reports of criminal activity and more. Each animal 'criminal' gets a spread that's filled with facts about the animal's characteristics, including distinguishing features, diet, life span, habitat and more, as well as a description of the animal's 'bad' behaviour and the reason behind it.
"What do a cuckoo who abandons her own egg and a frog who fakes his own death have in common? They're two of the most wanted creatures in the animal kingdom! In this hilarious nonfiction book, readers will meet 13 badly behaved creatures and the detective who's on the hunt to restore order to the animal kingdom. Each animal is wanted for a particular crime -- and spitting, lying, stealing and destruction of property are just a few of the ways these creatures cause trouble. Take a peek into Detective X's case files to learn more about these sneaky animal criminals, including a monkey who cries wolf, crabs that create chaos, and more!"-- Provided by publisher.
