Lots of animals spit, spray, spew, squirt and vomit as clever ways to get through the day and night. They use their disgusting abilities for defense, safe housing and protecting their young. Spit and spew help animals to catch food and feed their babies. Some spit even helps them to attract and impress potential mates. Without these handy bodily fluids to help them get along, many of these animals would not be able to survive in the world.

Preface

Surrounded by sub-tropical trees and coral reefs, Amami-Oshima is a southern Japanese island richly endowed with nature. The island’s flora and fauna have uniquely evolved, developing a distinctive eco-system that still thrives today. One of the island’s endemic denizens is the black Amami rabbit, known as a “living fossil.” Other island creatures include the Ryukyu long-haired rat that lives in trees (just as squirrels do); and the Ishikawa frog, one of the most beautiful of its kind in Japan. Veteran photographer Futoshi Hamada, who has been capturing the natural beauty of Amami-Oshima for 25 years, reveals the habitats and behaviors of these rare creatures in a unique tour of the island’s dense forest area.

Underwater photographer Ikuo Nakamura has been photographing the seas around Japan for over 40 years. One of his life's goals has been to capture on camera one particular giant fish the Asian sheepshead wrasse. This over one meter in length fish with large protrusions commands the sea with its imposing dignity. One particular fish called Benkei, after the medieval monk warrior. For years Benkei was the authority of the waters, but recently his number two has been lying in wait to take over. The Monster of the Sea captures the power game between these monster fish in the beautiful arena of the Japan Sea.
