Anyone who walks in London will see that we're not exactly short of a pigeon or two. We may even have grown used to seeing the odd fox cross our path on a city street. But since its earliest days, London has traded -- or fought -- with the rest of the world, and as a result some pretty exotic creatures have made their home here. (Though we could have done without the plague-carrying rats, thank you very much.) London and its suburbs teem with wildlife. You are about to go on a fascinating urban safari. Discover where you can find: The world's fastest animal; The Tube's very own new species of animals; Britain's only poisonous snake; The Natural History Museum's most unwelcome visitors; Britain's most secretive bird; Scorpions! As well as advice on how to create a wildlife habitat and to help your local environment, this book will direct you to some of the best museums and green and watery places to visit in or near London, as well as some websites to pursue your interests. Go wild! Book jacket.McLaren, Chris is the author of 'Rats, Bats, Frogs and Bogs of London', published 2004 under ISBN 9781904153054 and ISBN 1904153054.
