Book Reviews of Florida's Fabulous Mammals
Book Review: Fascinating Facts and Great Pictures
Summary: 4 Stars
I recently saw an otter and heard a group of coyotes howling. That led me to this book for more information on the animals around us in Florida.
The color photos are good-sized and show the animals in varied activities. There's a nice amount of detail about what the animals eat, their lifestyle, issues, threats to their existence, etc.
I learned a lot about feral pigs, bobcats, panthers, armadillos, black bears, foxes, bats, manatees, deer, etc. Children will enjoy the book also with all the photos and interesting facts.
A lot of off-beat info is included set off in boxes. These include info about trapping, rabies, wild animals as pets, bat houses, an armadillo fan club, introduced species, and much more).
One issue with the book is the font under some photos is the same size as the regular text, so the reader gets a little confused following down the columns. This could be easily remedied.
Things I wish the book would include: maps for each animal showing their range in Florida and a section showing tracks and scat for identifying animals we don't see.
