dangerous animals

"To feed the starving Human World, Toriko, his chef partner Komatsu and the other Four Kings journey to the Gourmet World. But getting to the Gourmet World proves quite the challenge! Even on the back of their trusty Octomelon, they may not survive the barbed waves of the Thorned Sea or its ghostly floating ships--much less the tricks of the giant floating faces on the land itself. And did we mention there isn't any land?"--Back cover.

"The Age of Gourmet is over. More than eighteen months after Meteor Spice destroyed much of the Human World, people struggle to find new food sources. The former President's Full-Course Meal, the Billion Bird, would provide enough food to feed the world-if the fowl didn't taste so foul! Can Toriko and friends turn this ugly duckling into the swan of cuisine?"--Amazon.com.

"The horrific conclusion of the epic battle between the heads of rival organizations the IGO and Gourmet Corp. spells disaster for the entire world, and the sun sets on the Age of Gourmet. Having lost his appetite for life, Toriko wanders the world. Meanwhile, Toriko's chef partner, Komatsu, finds a new purpose...at Gourmet Corp.!"--Back cover.

"Ichiryu, head of the IGO, and Midora, head of the nefarious Gourmet Corp., were once like brothers under the tutelage of Gourmet God Acacia, but now they are bitter rivals locked in a mortal combat of chopsticks vs. tongue.

Torkio continues his search to find the "jewel meat" within the body of the Regal Mammoth and ventures inside the beast while Sunny takes on another robot from the evil Gourmet Corp.

As Toriko revels in the taste of his latest gourmet hunt, a Puffer Whale, a mysterious, odd-looking creature that does not seem to be alive makes an appearance.

Contains profiles of fifty deadly animal species from Asia, Africa, Australasia, North America, South and Central America, Europe, and the world's oceans, providing illustrations and information about each animal's anatomy, habitat, behavior, and geographical range.

For millennia, lions, tigers, and their man-eating kin have kept our dark, scary forests dark and scary, and their predatory majesty has been the stuff of folklore. But by the year 2150 big predators may only exist on the other side of glass barriers and chain-link fences. Their gradual disappearance is changing the very nature of our existence. We no longer occupy an intermediate position on the food chain; instead we survey it invulnerably from above?so far above that we are in danger of forgetting that we even belong to an ecosystem..
