Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

With a moist, temperate climate and a wide assortment of ecosystems, Mississippi is a great place to learn about wildlife. Throughout its tallgrass prairies, swamps, oak savannas, sandy beaches, and brackish marshes are iconic animals like state mammals Red Fox and White-tailed Deer, state reptile American Alligator, and state birds Northern Mockingbird and Wood Duck. For many people, animals represent the face of ecosystems, so it helps to get to know the most familiar species. A useful tool for doing so is the portable reference Mississippi Wildlife. This beautifully illustrated collection features 140 common mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fishes, butterflies, and other insects, as well as an ecoregion map showing over 20 botanical sanctuaries and learning sites. Laminated for durability, this lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guide is the ideal companion for educators, learners, naturalists, birders, and wildlife enthusiasts who wish to forge deeper and more meaningful connections with the land through its fauna. Made in the USA.
