Animals

In the twilight of dense forests and azure depths of the oceans reside amazing creatures, whose stories began millions of years ago. The gavial, a contemporary of dinosaurs, silently glides through the waters of Indian rivers, a bright red-eyed frog... deceives predators with a phantom masquerade, a wise green turtle, guided by an inner compass, undertakes great migrations, and the mysterious okapi, like a ghost from the past, dissolves into the shadows of the Congolese jungle…
 
This book will tell you how the peacock became a symbol of immortality, and the dolphin - a guardian of sailors. You will hear the quiet steps of the brown bear, the “master of the taiga,” and witness the magical dance of the blue-footed booby, learn why the spots of a leopard are called “spiritual prints,” and how the sound of a woodpecker is compared to the heartbeat of the forest itself.
 
This edition is more than just stories about animals. It is a reminder that we live in a world full of wonders, where each creature has its own mission and its own magic. It is an invitation to look closely and see how the wisdom of our planet is reflected in the living nature.
