Full Description

If the termite were a human, its structures would be twice as high as Mount Etna in Sicily… Our world is full of wonders and they are all waiting to be discovered! Nature’s many different habitats are home to countless animal and plant species records – superlatives which at times we only become aware of when we compare them with human achievements. In the air, we follow the flight of the largest, fastest and most resilient birds, while in the seas, we encounter huge whales and fish – and it can all be recorded in numbers and statistics, yet the true achievements of the sea giants and why they don’t sink are easier to understand if we take a close look at the technical data for ships and submarines…
