A Guide to the Mammals of China [EPUB ebook] 

Ondersteuning

China’s stunning diversity of natural habitats–from parched deserts to lush tropical forests–is home to more than 10 percent of the world’s mammal species. A Guide to the Mammals of China is the most comprehensive guide to all 556 species of mammals found in China. It is the only single-volume reference of its kind to fully describe the physical characteristics, geographic distribution, natural history, and conservation status of every species.
