9780643098145: The Complete Guide to Finding the Mammals of Australia

Synopsis

Australia has a rich and unique array of animals, including the largest diversity of marsupials on earth. The recent growth in ecotourism has increased the popularity of mammal-spotting, particularly whale and dolphin-watching, but also spotting of perennial tourist favorites such as koalas and kangaroos.

For the first time ever, The Complete Guide to Finding the Mammals of Australia advises interested amateurs and professionals where to locate many of Australia’s mammals. The book describes Australia’s best mammal-watching sites state-by-state. It also includes a complete, annotated taxonomic list with hints on finding each species (or why it won’t be easy to see); sections on travel and logistics in Australia; and appendices with hints on finding and photographing mammals.
