Discover how nature
communicates.
What does a firefly, as it lights
up in the dark, have in common with a pleasantly scented
flower in a field, or a colourful fish in a coral reef?
These plants and animals are all getting across a
message! Use this PC CD-ROM to explore the beautiful
world of nature and discover the amazing ways in which
plants and animals communicate. The visual, vocal and
physical communication of nearly 100 species of fish,
amphibians, insects, reptiles, birds, mammals and plants
are explained in an extravaganza of colour and sound.
Choose from one of seven topics and see how the use of
camouflage, colouring, songs and scents are used in
order to hunt, protect, warn and attract.
Contains written text, narration, photographs, audio
visual elements, animated sequences, and slide shows
about the diverse kinds of communication in nature.
