Tasting with your feet : the amazing ways animals make sense of the world by Ned Barraud (Non Fiction 591.4)  Tasting with your Feet by Ned Barraud is a fascinating insight in the amazing ways animals use sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch and other sensory abilities to live day-to-day in their world. Butterflies taste with their feet, a bumblebee can see a flower’s ultraviolet colours, a shark can sense its prey’s electric pulses, a godwit can use the Earth’s magnetic field to navigate from Alaska to New Zealand. This wonderfully illustrated book is for 8 to 12 year age group. | ||
