This unique book aims to complement the existing field guides, in not only describing the appearance of Africa's mammals, but also their behaviour and actions. Covering four major groups - ruminant hoofed mammals, non-ruminant hoofed mammals, carnivores and primates - the text describes each species' distinctive behaviour, with descriptions of their appearance, relationships, evolution, ecology, social organisation, feeding, mating, fighting, plus where to find them. ` A work of tremendous scope ... Amateur naturalists and tourists to the parks of Africa and finally professionals will find this a stimulating, well-documented summary.' John F Eisenberg, Florida Museum of Natural History.
