About this title

Synopsis

Now in its third edition, Venomous Creatures of Australia remains the definitive field guide on the subject. Fully updated, it describes more than sixty of the continent's poisonous animals--including snakes, spiders, bees, wasps, ants, and jellyfish--and how to perform life-saving first aid procedures in the event of attack. With its easy-to-use format, full-color photographs, location maps, and helpful illustrations, the guide is ideal for hikers, divers, campers, teachers, hospital workers, scouts, and pharmacists.
