Includes bibliographical references, Internet addresses and index.A millipede the size of a basketball player? A pit-bull-sized scorpion? It's hard to imagine, but such mega-critters once lived on our planet. Award-winning science writer Helaine Becker introduces us to nine of these terrifying giants. You'll discover when and where they lived, how they grew to their mega-sizes and how they became extinct. Realistic illustrations show us what the animal looked like and how big it could grow. A timeline places the animal in its geological period and a map indicates where its fossils have been discovered. Sidebars throughout expand on scientific and historical concepts, such as adaptation and the Permian extinction.
