| Resumen: |
THE STAKES MAY BE FOOD, TERRITORY, A MATE OR SURVIVAL. tHE STRATEGIES MIGHT BE SOPHISTICATED OR SIMPLISTIC. WHATEVER THE INGREDIENTS, PHYSICAL CONFLICT IS A FACT OF LIFE. AND ATHROPOLOGIST SIR DAVID ATTENBOROUGH SHINES INCREDIBLE, ENDELIBLE LIGHT ON THESE WARS OF THE ANIMAL WORLD. FOLLOW THE GOOD FIGHT TO ALASKA, WHERE TWO BEHEMOTH BULL MOOSE SQUARE OFF; TO AFRICA WHERE GIRAFFES WIELD THEIR NECKS LIKE SLEDGEHAMMERS; TO THE MIDDLE EAST WHERE A PAIR OF IBEX GO HEAD TO HEAD, LITERALLY. WITNESS ALL MANNER OF WEAPONRY-STINGERS, SIRENS, PINCERS, EVEN THE PISTOL SHRIMP'S "STUN GUN." AND, IN A REMARKABLY CIVILIZED TUSSLE, TWO GAZELLES ENGAGE IN A MYSTERIOUS LITTLE BALLET OF NODS AND FEINTS AND CIRCLES TO DETERMINE ONE'S SUPERIORITY OVER THE OTHER. |
