In this engaging exploration of winter biology, a naturalist and illustrator reveals how animals endure the season’s cold, darkness, scarcity, and constant threat of predators. From tiny insects to mammals and birds, the book examines the ingenious physical and behavioral adaptations that make survival possible in one of nature’s harshest environments. Blending vivid observation, scientific insight, and accessible storytelling, it offers a fascinating new perspective on the hidden activity unfolding beneath the snow and ice.
