“If you’re a fan of Nature Is Metal on social media, you’re gonna love this book. Every page is a celebration of both the brutality and beauty of nature, two things that are inseparable. This is a tremendously gorgeous work of art.”–Steven Rinella, founder of MeatEater
“Speaking as someone who grew up watching nature documentaries and always ended up rooting for the predator, this book is truly right up my alley.”–Wes Larson, wildlife biologist and host of Tooth & Claw podcast
“An exposé of the harsh brutality of nature–up close and personal.”–Slash

Ettore R. Paolucci
Ettore R. Paolucci (Rick) launched Nature Is Metal in 2014. His late-night scribblings turned into off-the-wall captions, breathing life into user-generated clips of brutal beauty, fueling over a decade of growth and this improbable first book. A self-taught storyteller with a sharp eye for viral content, he’s created his own unique voice that’s defined a new way of seeing nature online.
