The atlas of endangered animals

the long version

This atlas features 50 different animal species from around the world, all of which are currently in danger of becoming extinct. Each continent is covered, with examples carefully drawn from every habitat -- from the mysterious aye-aye of Madagascar's shrinking rainforest, to the shy spectacled bear of the high Andes. This atlas explains the reasons for the animals being endangered and vividly illustrates each animal's anatomy, habits, and geographical spread with detailed full-color artwork, maps, and photographs. - Back cover.
