Action: Defence – (Mainsails Series)

Format: Paperback – 32 Pages

For many animals survival depends on defence systems that evolve from both physical and behavioural adaptations. Camouflage, flight from attack, withdrawal, threat and bluff, using physical armour and co-operation are all strategies of the defence systems that animals use when defending themselves from attack.

It is ideal for:
