A fascinating journey around the world of extinct animals, combining cartoons with naturalist drawings, and mythology with science. Did you know there was once a beaver that was two metres long?

That the elephant-bird really did exist? And that the dodo once had a life beyond the pages of Alice in Wonderland?

Have you heard of the megatherium, the glyptodon or the tratratratra?Through legend and mythology, anecdotes and scientific facts, the authors tell fascinating stories of the strange animals that disappeared before our time.

The book is a tragicomedy, and a mine of information for everyone interested in the animal world.
