Kaufman Field Guide To Mammals Of North America

This comprehensive guide invites nature lovers to discover North America's wild animals, treating every species of wild mammal found north of the Mexican border—from squirrels and chipmunks to grizzly bears and jaguars, as well as those in offshore waters.

More than 1,200 photographs have been digitally edited to show correct sizes, comparative colors, and the field marks necessary for identification in the wild. The format has been designed for easy field use, with illustrations, maps, and text arranged side by side. Detailed range maps show where each species is common or rare, while the authoritative text discusses identification and the essential facts about habitats and behavior.

Hundreds of illustrations show tracks, dens, and other signs that you may notice even when the animals themselves are out of sight. Part of the distinguished Kaufman Field Guide series, this guide engages and educates naturalists of all ages and skill levels about the wonders of nature.
