Lions & Tigers & Bears

Don't let the ... packaging fool you--this paperback is a reprint of a BBC book from a few years back that's chock full of information on many hundreds of cases of animals devouring people. This book imparts that more than a million people have been killed and eaten by tigers in the course of human history. There are also chapters on African lions (including a great capsule story of the Man-Eaters of Tsavo), leopards (which rival tigers in India as man-eaters), wolves (of which there are almost no known cases of them killing man in Europe or North America), and cougars, which are deadlier than I had realized. There are also chapters on more cold-blooded denizens, sharks and crocodilians. Very entertaining, though you'll reconsider letting your kids play outside for a while.

really good

Not for young readers the attacks are described in graphic details.I have only read the first chapter on the attacks and it is pretty intersting to read about why the animals do it.I am 16 and I don't like other non-fiction books I mostly like fiction, but this one caught my eye, I recomend that you go rent it from your library first to see if you like it.
