Sensitive Topics
The book addresses predator and prey dynamics as a natural part of each habitat. This is handled in a direct, scientific, and secular manner. For example, it may mention that a fox hunts rabbits. The descriptions are not graphic or sensationalized but are presented as a matter of fact within the food chain. There is no moral judgment, just scientific explanation.
