*"Who knew the biography of a germ could be so fascinating?"--Kirkus Reviews, starred review This is the story of a killer that has been striking people down for thousands of years: tuberculosis. After centuries of ineffective treatments, the microorganism that causes TB was identified and the cure was thought to be within reach--but drug-resistant varieties continue to plague and panic the human race. The "biography" of this deadly germ and the social history of an illness that could strike anywhere are woven together in an engrossing, carefully researched narrative.

Lovely Salmon
Our dog LOVES this toy. She loves it so intensely we had to purchase a second salmon. She is a (smaller) medium sized dog and it took her about a year to even half tear a fin. This brand is our favorite and we are slowly collecting every toy they make.

Dog loves this toy
Our Golden Retriever loves this toy, I would recommend it for that reason. But she did manage to chew off the smaller fins within the first couple of days. But considering she is pretty rough on her toys, I would still recommend it.

My dog loves his fish!
It's very strong and durable except for the patch on it my dog removed it in 10 minutes but the fish itself is holding up great!
