Description

Nature's creatures can be ferocious Lions and sharks leave many animals running scared. But some predators may be hunting beneath your feet or above your head--and you don't know they're there. Meet some of the most successful predators on Earth: little killers.

Tiny predators use adaptations including poisons, strong jaws, and social groups hunt. From pteropods to driver ants, author Sneed B. Collard III shines a light on the lives of these voracious killers with jaw-dropping facts paired with incredible close-up photographs.
