Powerful dynasties lay claim to vast swathes of territory, fighting off rivals & securing their hunting grounds for generations to come.

Dynasties offers an immersive insight into the shifting hierarchies of animal families. Each chapter follows a different dynasty, from the Marsh Lions of the Masai Mara to rival packs of painted wolves, from a tiger protecting her newborn cubs to a chimpanzee troop & the penguin colonies of the Antarctic.

Alongside tender moments when bonds are strengthened through grooming & play, the book charts the rivalries that tip the balance of power, when family members turn against each other & younger animals grow strong enough to challenge for control.
