Cartoonist and national treasure Ralph Steadman´s unique take on critically endangered animals.

---

Following on from Extinct Boids and Nextinction, Critical Critters is the third in this epic trilogy of books dedicated to extinct and critically endangered animals from cartoonist Ralph Steadman and film-maker Ceri Levy - the GONZOVATIONISTS.

Expect plenty more of what made the first two books so successful - unpredictable nonsense beasts, irreverent jokes, a diary-style record of the creative mayhem, and around 100 spectacular illustrations by Ralph of critically endangered mammals, insects, fish, lizards and trees - a stunning collection, with a serious conservation message.

With the support of one of the world´s leading conservation bodies, the Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust, Ceri´s humorous but meaningful message accompanied by Ralph´s sensational paintings will satisfy art-lovers and conservationists alike.
