Life in cold blood

Reptiles and amphibians ruled the world for nearly 200 million years and today there are still over 12,500 of them. Some are huge, the deadliest creatures on earth. Some are tiny, among the strangest to be found anywhere. 

Life in Cold Blood, traces the story of their evolution and overturns the myth that these creatures are just primitive killers to reveal them for what they truly are.
