Description: Venomous and Poisonous Animals By Anders Edstrom Hardcover: 210 Pages — Publisher: Krieger Pub Co; First Edition (1992) This book provides a short review of venoms used by animals to defend themselves or to capture prey. Venomous or poisonous animals are widely distributed throughout the animal kingdom, with birds appearing to be the only large and widespread group in which no venomous species has been discovered. By research in this field scientists have learned, and will learn, much about animal behaviour and physiology. The active venom components, the toxins, have proved to useful tools for studying human physiological mechanisms. Because of the high specificity of certain toxins, it has been possible to resolve important links in complex physiological mechanisms with these substances. Please note: All books are shipped USPS Media Mail within the U.S.A. Other forms of postage are prohibitively expensive and will be used only at buyer's request. Shipment to countries outside the U.S.A. will be sent First Class International Mail unless the package weighs more than 4 lbs. which will require a higher cost form of shipment. Again, other forms of international postage will only be used at the buyer's request because of high cost. Condition: BRAND NEW.

If you are bidding on multiple items and/or need more than 7 days to complete payment, please be sure to contact me. I gladly combine shipments of two or more items. Combined shipping is best facilitated by contacting me before payment. If an item remains unpaid for 7 days, I begin the Unpaid Item process with eBay to recover my eBay fees, will relist the item, and an unpaid item ding will be recorded on the non-paying bidder's/buyer's Ebay account. Shipping: If an Ebay Store listing or auction features free shipping, there is no shipping cost to the buyer. Otherwise, Buyer pays shipping. Please Note: Sellers are not responsible for service transit time. This information is provided by the carrier (i.e., US Postal Service) and excludes weekends and holidays. Carrier's transit times can vary considerably during peak periods. Therefore, I make no guarantees about transit times (despite Ebay's promises), but I will put your package into the carrier's system in one business day. Please note: I do not ship on Saturdays or Sundays, as my local post office is closed on weekends. Items purchased after 12:00 p.m. on Friday, on Saturday, or on Sunday will be shipped the following Monday.
