<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Fall in love with the hilarious habits of African creatures you thought you knew and those you've never heard of.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>In an irreverent but loving treatise on the creatures of South Africa and beyond, David Muirhead features eccentric animal behaviors in his native home. Mixing folklore and legend with a heavy dose of science, Muirhead leaves no wart unexamined in these tales of unrespectable animals. A book for those delighted to discover what "pronking" means, or that for pythons, swallowing a porcupine whole is the easy part; it's afterwards when the anxiety really starts.</p> <p>Cat Among the Pigeons allows us to laugh our way to a reconnection with the creatures we co-evolved with, highlighting their importance to our collective past and precarious futures. A reminder in our increasingly urban world that the strange and fantastical still roam, crawl, wiggle, swim and soar through the terrestrial and aquatic world, ready to delight and surprise us.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"An inherently fascinating, impressively informative, and thoroughly entertaining read from first page to last" -- <i>Midwest Book Review</i><br><br>"No matter what page you turn to, you will be charmed, educated and entertained by the language and the lexicon of Mr. Muirhead." --Pamela Kramer, book reviewer and animal advocate<br>
