Overview
Discover animals once thought extinct—found alive and thriving in the wild!
Earth is full of surprises. Every year, thousands of species vanish—gone, presumed extinct, lost forever . . . or are they?
On rare occasions, creatures believed to have disappeared have been rediscovered by scientists and local communities. From the black-footed ferret, thought wiped out by disease until one turned up on a Wyoming porch, to the Pinocchio lizard, a quirky, long-nosed reptile hiding in Ecuador’s cloud forests, these comeback stories span the globe.
Comeback Creatures is packed with inspiring tales of animals that beat the odds. It features:
- Over 50 rediscovered species—from tiny frogs and rare reptiles to giant tortoises and singing dogs.
- Immersive habitat spreads that explore rainforests, deserts, islands, and oceans.
- Flip-to-reveal pages uncovering the fascinating story behind each rediscovery.
- Compendium snapshots highlighting even more species that defied extinction.
- Tips to become a wildlife detective and protect nature in your own backyard.
- A helpful glossary to explain key conservation and science terms.
