Every season, the entire planet resonates with the songs, squawks, screeches and calls of animals. The gentle art of seduction is by no means the reserve of man. The animal kingdom offers many striking examples of courtship and family affection. Dances and offerings are often the best ways to seduce, staging parades and musical numbers, sometimes comical, sometimes tender, but always spectacular. Giraffes, dolphins, lions, clown fishes, birds, kangaroos, monkeys, crabs or insects: all work hard to pair and give life, and nurture their young. In many respects, animal behaviour is reminiscent of our own, and this journey through the beautiful, fascinating, amusing world of animals cannot fail to strike a very familiar chord.
With its touching and magnificent images, Animals In Love takes us all over the globe, inside the most extraordinary love stories ever told.
