The book of vanishing species : illustrating the rarest creatures, plants and fungi on Earth
Forshall, Beatrice, 1992-2022
Books
Our Earth is more beautiful and more diverse than we can possibly conceive of. 'The Book of Vanishing Species' is a stunning homage to the planet's most mysterious, bizarre and wondrous creatures and plants. Their stories are captivating, from the eyeless and tiny dragonlike olm to the hawksbill turtle, whose gender will be determined by the temperature of the sand it is born in. These species may have survived for hundreds of thousands of years by cleverly adapting to their environments, but their future remains far from certain.
