The tropical rainforests of the world are home to some of the world's most interesting and unusual reptiles and amphibians - from the colourful poison-arrow frog to the anaconda, the world's largest snake, to the marine turtle and the chameleon. It is believed that the rainforests contain around two-thirds of all species of reptiles and amphibians that live on the earth. This book looks at some of these amazing reptiles and amphibians that live in the rainforest, and at their homes, food and threats. Beautifully designed, and illustrated with stunning new photographs, this book's features include special 'links' boxes highlighting the relationships of rainforest reptiles and amphibians to those living in other habitats around the world; and 'Rainforest secrets' revealing amazing facts and stories about some extraordinary reptiles and amphibians.
