Imagine being able to live in the darkest depths of the ocean, or in parched desert conditions that can reach around 158 degrees Fahrenheit (70 degrees Celsius). There are many animals that call these dangerous environments home. They are called extremophiles. This series allows students to explore the treacherous habitats and unique adaptations of creatures who have learned to survive in their severe surroundings. These include the R?ppell's fox that can live in one of the hottest deserts in the world thanks to special fur on the pads of its paws and the deep-dwelling giant squid with eyes the size of soccer balls! This series offers young readers a range of unique facts about creatures that can help humans understand the most intense conditions under which life is possible on Earth.
