This small but mighty creature demonstrates one of natures most sophisticated predator-prey relationships, floating at the oceans surface while hunting dangerous creatures like the Portuguese Man-of-War.</p><p>The book reveals how this unique species not only survives but thrives by stealing and repurposing the stinging cells of its prey, making itself even more venomous than its dangerous quarry. Through a combination of detailed microscopy studies and field observations, the text progresses from the slugs basic morphology to its complex hunting strategies and ecological significance.</p><p>Readers discover how its distinctive finger-like cerata serve dual purposes for movement and defense, while its silvery-blue coloration provides perfect camouflage from predators above and below. The author weaves together multiple scientific disciplines, from marine biology to biochemistry, creating a comprehensive understanding of this remarkable creatures place in marine ecosystems.</p><p>The book uniquely bridges the gap between technical research and accessible science, making complex biological processes understandable through detailed diagrams and photographs. It examines current debates in marine biology, including the evolution of venom immunity and the impacts of changing ocean conditions on these fascinating creatures. This thorough exploration serves diverse audiences, from curious nature enthusiasts to professional researchers, while highlighting the broader implications for marine conservation and potential applications in pharmaceutical research.</p>...6904970Blue Dragon Slug9393https://www.gandhi.com.mx/blue-dragon-slug-9788233939823/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/6815279/image.jpg?v=638738069480100000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20259788233939823_W3siaWQiOiJlZDhjNzAxZC02NTJhLTRmNDctOTg3OS0xMGY2Njg3MzBlODQiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjkzLCJkaXNjb3VudCI6MCwic2VsbGluZ1ByaWNlIjo5MywiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6IklwcCIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjUtMDEtMTVUMTQ6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9788233939823_<p><strong>Blue Dragon Slug</strong> explores the fascinating world of <em>Glaucus atlanticus</em>, a remarkable sea slug that has mastered the art of turning its preys weapons against them.
