Jungle Spirits cover

"From exquisite orchids, exotic bees and industrious ants to fascinating animals such as chameleons, ocelots, bonobos and bats, the book reveals the complex interactions." —Outdoor Photography
"A visually stunning book that will have wildlife lovers enchanted and mesmerised, it's well worth adding to your collection." —Amateur PhotographySome 60 percent of all the world’s species live in jungles. In this best-selling book and celebration of biodiversity, award-winning wildlife photographer Christian Ziegler and biologist Daisy Dent create a monument to jungle life — from Panama to Congo, Madagascar to Australia. With 186 colour photographs and expert texts, they show us some of the most fascinating specimens of jungle flora and fauna: tiny driver ants, nimble ocelots, bonobos, cassowaries, chameleons, colourful orchids, and carnivorous plants. A visually stunning journey through the rain forest, and an urgent reminder of how much our world depends on the preservation of tropical ecosystems.

"Christian Ziegler has a very particular eye, and whether he’s shooting ants eating a millipede or a group of bats that look as though they could happily eat us, he always chooses the odd and disturbing image over the obvious. Daisy Dent’s accompanying text is full of good stuff. Did you know that bats have nipples in their armpits? Or that beetles fight their enemies by shooting gas out of their anuses?" - Marcus Berkmann, Mail Online
"Twenty years of wandering in the tropical forests of the world to study the charismatic inhabitants and try to protect them." [Translated from Italian via Google Translate] - Corriere della Sera
