Groups of animals have different names, like packs, herds and pods, and these groups make the animals better - like ants working together to build a colony by growing their own food;a school of fish hunting together, or an implausibility of gnus protecting each other by sheer numbers. 

Beautiful illustrations, the kind that look like art that should be framed. I loved learning what the groups are called, how theirs numbers enable them to survive better, I loved the message of conservation and how we as a human community can help. Includes sources for further reading.
