The Kingdon Field Guide to African Mammals Synopsis

The essential mammal guide to take on safari, covering every African land mammal.

From giraffes and lions to gorillas, mandrills, zebras and zorillas, Africa is the greatest mammal-watching region in the world. This is the definitive field guide to these animals.

Concise text provides full information on identification, distribution, ecology, relationships and conservation status, with introductory profiles that summarise the characteristics of each mammal group. Every species of African land mammal is covered, with coverage of some of the small-mammal complexes simplified by reference to genera.

Jonathan Kingdon, one of the world's foremost authorities on African mammals, has both written and illustrated this landmark field guide, and the unique combination of his extensive field experience and artistic talent has produced a stunning work that sets new standards. With more than 780 colour illustrations, numerous line drawings and more than 520 maps, this book is an essential companion for anyone visiting any part of Africa or with an interest in the mammals of the continent.
