Snakes. From Vipers to Boa Constrictors

With full captions explaining the history, behavior, and feeding habits of more than 150 snake species, Snakes is a fascinating examination of these reptilian killers in vivid photographs. 
Few animals strike as much fear as snakes, which kill either through their poisonous venom or through suffocation. Numbering more than 3,000 species, snakes can be found in virtually every environment other than Antarctica, from the jungles of the Amazon to the Gobi Desert and Australian Outback. Some snakes even inhabit the rivers and seas. Arranged by continent, Snakes offers an engaging pictorial introduction to these prehistoric predators.
