- Summary
- "This book combines two popular and respected handbooks that have informed readers in various editions for more than 60 years. The authors describe all 39 species of amphibians and reptiles known to live or have lived in British Columbia, along with details on their biology, habits, breeding, and distribution. They also cover introduced, accidental and unconfirmed species that may be recent arrivals in the province. In the introductory section they discuss the general biology of amphibians and reptiles, as well as snake venoms and amphibian toxins, mating behavior, physical development and metamorphosis, and much more. Each species is illustrated and this edition features 60 colour photographs."--BOOK JACKET.
