This title discusses the behaviors of blood-feeding species as well as their role in the world; a final chapter covers prevention and removal techniques for the animals that prey on humans. The book is thorough, but dense, small-print text and sophisticated language may pose a challenge for the audience. The eye-catching color photographs unfortunately don't indicate scale.
