Synopsis
Six big cats face off against the Death-O-Meter to determine which will be crowned the deadliest of the species.
Meet the deadliest big cats on Earth.
Whose bite is the most lethal? Is it the stylish tiger? The sneaky leopard? The speedy cheetah? Or someone else?
The host of this stiff competition, Dr. Eleanor Spicer Rice, teaches the rules for big cat interactions (Do not get one as a pet! Do not encroach on their territory!), gives a digestible breakdown of these apex predators, and introduces the contestants.
This tale of claws and jaws invites readers into the world of big cats: where they live, what they eat―and what could happen if you ever encountered one. It also encourages readers to appreciate them, showing how they survive, why they’re important to the places they live―and why we should protect them. With humor, accessible science, and a colorful graphic format by best-selling artist Max Temescu, The Deadliest: Big Cat shows that there’s a lot to learn about these deadly creatures.
