National Geographic
Explorer and snake wrangler Dr. Brady Barr has been bitten by a lot of
creatures over the years. So this book is born from first hand – er, tooth –
experience of getting close to some of the biggest biters in the animal kingdom.
It turns out that there's a lot more to biting than meets the
eye. Physical features and the how (and when and why) an animal bites reveals
much about the animal itself. Chomp! highlights an array of awesome creatures
with a diversity of chomp styles – from shredders and slicers to grippers and
gulpers. Then it shows how tooth type, bite force, jaw shape, and food source
all come to together to make each an incredible member of the animal bite force!
