| Samenvatting | The Gila Monster spends 99% of its life underground, making encounters with this lizard extremely rare. Sightings are infrequent even for the biologists who study them. When one does stumble upon a Gila Monster, however, this slow-moving lizard is not easily forgotten. Advertised by orange-and-black coloration and followed by stories of venomous power, the Gila Monster carries a mystique like that of few other animals. In this volume, authors David Brown and Neil Carmony dig out the tall tales, dispel the myths, and reveal the lizard&;s true character. Through a collection of biological and historical facts mixed with entertaining stories, they have created an illuminating account of America&;s largest and only poisonous lizard. Written in an engaging style, The Gila Monster is a fun and educational read for all who are intrigued by the Southwest and its most mysterious denizen. |
