You're probably thinking "what the?!" which is exactly what I first thought when I picked up a copy of this book. And while it is a little bizarre (and very funny at times), this is a serious work that the author, Len Zell, hopes will help drivers reduce their impact (no pun intended) on our special animals.
This is the essential 'in-car' book for any road traveller in Australia. With about one million kilometres of road, anyone travelling them is, sadly, very likely to see or cause roadkill - certainly of the millions of small bugs that will be hit.
This book provides an overview of the types of roadkill, hints on what to do with them, how to clean bugs off the car and an eclectic mix of other information - from road safety to, yep, recipes!
In addition the book gives an unusual insight into the many aspects of Australia's very special fauna, albeit in a somewhat macabre way.
More than 200 photographs of roadkill all some identification and an excellent guide on how to avoid and observe roadkill and who to send interesting specimens to.
I loved the bit on RSI - Roadkill Scene Investigation!
