Description

Journey through the fascinating and surprising world of reptiles and amphibians.

Some can change colour, while others see temperature. Some can swallow prey whole, and others cry blood to scare off predators. Some can even regrow their lost tails!

Discover where amphibians and reptiles come from, how they have survived for millions of years, why they are important for the planet, and all about their superhero-like abilities.
