Featuring an array of animals from both Western Plains and Toronga Park the book is presented in a hard cover format with high quality glossy pictures. The idea came about when author, Catherine Retter kept on spotting some wonderful animal photo's in the Sydney press. She eventually contacted the photographer, Natalie Boog and they agreed to get together and produce this book. It showcases both Zoos as they are today but the ever changing face of zoos suggests that a second edition could be possible. This is Catherine's seventh book but nothing like she's ever done before. Natalie says its true what they say about working with animals...they simply don't do what you want them to when trying to snap picture. Even so the photography and accompanying stories provide a unique and spectacular portrayal of both Zoos and profiles many of the people who work with these amazing animals.
