Description

A fully updated second edition of the field guide to carnivores of the world Ranging from the largest terrestrial carnivore, the Polar Bear, to the tiny Least Weasel that can squeeze through a wedding ring, the true carnivores include some of the world’s most charismatic, admired, feared and spectacular creatures. This new edition of Luke Hunter’s comprehensive guide profiles all of the world’s terrestrial carnivore species. Thoroughly updated throughout and covering recently described species, a detailed account describes each species’ key identification characteristics, distribution and habitat, behaviour, feeding ecology, social patterns, life history statistics, conservation and the latest on classification. The new edition also includes accurate distribution maps for each species. Colour plates by top wildlife artist Priscilla Barrett depict each species, with subspecies, colour variations and behavioural vignettes for many. There are also detailed line drawings of more than 230 skulls and 110 footprints.
