From a sensational social media account comes a visual celebration of nature at its rawest-featuring the deadliest and toughest animals on Earth and what it really takes to survive.
From the viral Instagram account @natureismetal, discover the most badass animals on the planet with this no-holds-barred celebration of nature at its most head-bangingly metal. Packed with dramatic-and utterly brutal-photographs and eye-popping biological info on more than 75 species that are not to be messed with, Nature Is Metal is a raw and unforgiving celebration of deadly hunting techniques, ingenious survival tactics, and much more.
Jewel wasps that stab and zombify prey, then bury their victims alive as a living pantry for their hatching eggs. Bronzeback snakes that literally fly through the jungle air to make their attack. Sandbox trees that blast poisonous, shrapnel-like bark at up to 160 mph. With sections separated ecosystems such as forests, savannas, and oceans-plus a face-melting section on natural phenomena like volcanic lightning and avalanches-this is anything but your touchy-feely nature book.
Welcome to the pit-try not to get kicked in the face!
