"Describes how animals use teeth, jaws, and claws as weapons and defenses"--Provided by publisher.

Plenty of predators use their monstrous jaws and piercing claws to attack their prey, but many creatures wield these adaptations as defensive mechanisms, too. Readers may be surprised that an animal as cute as the red panda can fiercely protect itself from a snow leopard and that there’s a kind of frog that can jab its version of a bony claw through its skin. Every animal needs to have some kind of weapon if they want to survive in a wild world. Illustrative photographs, fun fact boxes, and a concluding graphic organizer support and enhance this high-interest volume.

This is a story about different animals for pets. This is written in rhymes like poems. Discover how amazing to have them as a pet. Enjoy reading!

Paws for romping, jaws for chomping. Claws that scratch and jaws that catch. Paws that creep and paws that leap. Meet the acrobats, sprinters, climbers, divers, fishers, and zig-zaggers and other animals you thought you knew.
