Casual animal watchers will appreciate the overview of mammal diversity and the tips on identifying animals they can spy in their binoculars, while scientists will appreciate the exacting detail needed to distinguish similar species, including illustrations of shrew teeth, bat toes, and whale dorsal fins.The best-illustrated and easiest-to-use field guide to North American mammalsBeautiful and accurate color illustrations of all 462 mammals found in the United States and Canada—including 20 species recognized since 2002112 color plates—including 13 new onesKey identification information—fully revised—on facing pagesThe most current taxonomy/species listFully revised, easy-to-read range mapsIllustrations of tracks, scat, and whale and dolphin dive sequences New Textbooks>Trade Paperback>Nature & Wildlife>Mammals FG>Mammals FG, Princeton University Press Core >1 >T<
