Summary
"America's national parks are home to hundreds of species of wild mammals. Captured in vivid photographs, both the mammals and the parks are revealed in this book written by two leading experts - one a forester and the other a zoologist." "The book opens with descriptions of the history and landscape of each park and gives an overview of conservation issues and tips on sighting particular animals. The second half of the book provides a thorough description of each type of mammal, including appearance, behavior, range, and feeding habits. The environmental issues affecting the mammal populations are highlighted for each group."--BOOK JACKET.
