Description
From mice to mountain lions, identifying mammals can be simple, informative and fun. Award-winning author Stan Tekiela's famous field guide includes all 144 of Arizona's mammals, organized by family (from small to large). Each type of species gets a full-page photograph and three pages of information including size, habitat, range and more. Track patterns and other signs that an animal might leave behind aid in ensuring correct identification. Professional photos and Stan's naturalist notes help you to discover all of Arizona's diverse species.
