Candid Creatures, the first major book to reveal the
secret lives of animals through motion-sensitive game cameras,
biologist Roland Kays has assembled over 600 remarkable
photographs. Drawing from archives of millions of color and
night-vision photographs collected by hundreds of researchers,
Kays has selected images that show the unique perspectives of
wildlife from throughout the world. Using these photos, he tells
the stories of scientific discoveries that camera traps have
enabled, such as living proof of species thought to have been
extinct and details of predator-prey interactions.

Each image captures a moment frozen in the camera’s flash as
animals move through their wild habitats. Kays also discusses how
scientists use camera traps to address conservation issues,
creating solutions that allow humans and wild animals to coexist.
More than just a collection of amazing animal pictures, the
book’s text, maps, and illustrations work together to describe
the latest findings in the fast-moving field of wildlife
research.

Candid Creatures is a testament to how the
explosion of game cameras around the world has revolutionized the
study of animal ecology. The powerful combination of pictures and
stories of discovery will fascinate anyone interested in science,
nature, wildlife biology, or photography.
