Book Description
Animals are fond of feeding, fighting, and something else beginning with 'f.' But competition is fierce, and they'll need a few tricks up their sleeves to pass on their genes. The Mating Game investigates the ins-and-outs of creative courtship rituals, eyebrow-raising evolutionary adaptations, and an array of peculiar peckers that would make Charles Darwin blush. Each seductive specimen has its own illustrated dating profile, along with background info on its real-life mating strategies. Ever wanted to know which species engages in a spot of "penis fencing"? Is a love dart as romantic as it sounds? And what does a sea otter have in common with Christian Grey? From aquatic artists to pebble-thieving penguins, these amorous animals will pull out all the stops to win the mating game.

Book Description
Birds do it, bees do it — every member of the animal kingdom does it, from fruit flies to blue whales. But if you think humans have a tough time dating, try having to do it while being hunted down by predators, against a backdrop of unpredictable and life-threatening conditions. The animal kingdom is a wild place – and it’s got mating habits to match. The sex lives of our animal cousins are fiendishly difficult, infinitely varied, often incredibly violent — and absolutely fascinating.In Wild Sex, Dr. Carin Bondar takes readers on an enthralling tour of the animal kingdom as she explores the diverse world of sex in the wild. She looks at the evolution of sexual organs (and how they’ve shaped social hierarchies), tactics of seduction, and the mechanics of sex. She investigates a wide range of topics, from whether animals experience pleasure from sex to what happens when females hold the reproductive power. Along the way, she encounters razor-sharp penises, murderous carnal cannibals, and spontaneous chemical warfare in an epic battle between the sexes.The resulting book is titillating, exhilarating, amusing, petrifying, alluring — and absolutely guaranteed to make you think about sex in a whole new way.

Book Description
A fish that walks on land, a frog that makes its own sunscreen, and an insect that can become invisible? Whether to avoid predators, to stalk prey, or to withstand extreme temperatures, Earth's creatures have evolved some outrageous features and tricks to ensure survival. For example, did you know that the geoduck (nope, it's not a duck, it's a clam) can live as long as 160 years? And that the aye-aye, a nocturnal primate, uses echolocation and a long, spindly finger to find and dig up food? Or that in its deep-ocean habitat, the vampire squid uses bioluminescence to startle predators? These are among the many animals that show evolution and adaptation at work.
