Product Description
Review
"The most thorough description of mammals in Africa accessible to the layman."--"The Travel Book Review
Product Description
The Behavior Guide to African Mammals is as different from a conventional field guide as motion pictures are from a snapshot. Whether we are able to look at them face to face, on television, or in the hundreds of illustrations provided here by Daniel Otte, this guide allows us to understand what animals do and what their behavior means. Drawing on his own extensive fieldwork and on the research of many other scientists, Richard Estes describes and explains the behavior of four major groups of mammals. Estes's remarkably informative guide is as up-to-date for the zoologist as it is accessible for the interested onlooker.

Im doing a Animal Managment course in zoo animals and this book provided very useful when doing an assignment on the behaviour of some of the animals in my care. This guide provides not just information for people working with these African species but also anyone with an intrest of how they behave in the wild.
Definatly a must have if taking part in a zoology degree or animal management course.

Very detailed and definitely for those with serious interest in the animals. 3 copies now bought as the safari guides have taken the first copies as their tip in preference to money.
