This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The divide between Europe and Africa is only a few short miles and the two continents support an extraordinary array of animal life across huge distances. Narwhals live in the northern seas of the Arctic Ocean, chamois bound up the steep rocky slopes of the mountainous areas of Europe, great crested newts inhabit the ponds of Britain and central Europe, spitting cobras hide inside termite hills in eastern Africa, indris jump between tree trunks in the tropical rainforests of Madagascar, and bat-eared foxes live in the open country of southern and eastern Africa. This book is a comprehensive visual guide to over 575 major species from the Arctic Circle through to Britain, mainland Europe, the full length and breadth of Africa, and Madagascar. Animals are grouped for easy reference according to their related types: salamanders, frogs and toads, turtles and tortoises, lizards, crocodiles, snakes, cats, hyenas, civets and genets, dogs, small carnivores, mongooses, rodents, rabbits, bats, insectivores, apes, monkeys, lemurs, elephants, hoofed animals, seals, dolphins, whales and sirenians. From familiar animals, such as reindeer, hippopotamuses and great apes, through to less familiar animals, such as Malagasy leaf-nosed snakes, fossas and aye ayes, all the animals are accompanied by a lively description of their physical characteristics and behaviour. Easy-to-read information panels detail distribution, habitat, food sources, size, life span and conservation status, and additional information about the less common species is presented in at-a-glance panels throughout the book. This groundbreaking book is beautifully illustrated with over 380 specially commissioned detailing colour illustrations, over 120 amazing colour photographs and hundreds of distribution maps. It is a must-have family reference for everyone who is enthralled by the incredible world of animals and who wants to understand more about them.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The habitats of Great Britain, Europe and Africa boast some of the most interesting and adaptable members of the avian world. While African savanna may seem remote from the forests of northern Europe, many birds will endure perilous migrations between the two continents as part of their life cycle. This accessible and fully illustrated guide presents some of the rare and familiar bird species of these lands, and captures the multitude of sizes, shapes and colours in existence. From the tiny malachite sunbird to the enormous ostrich; from the grace of a mute swan to the striking casque of an African crowned hornbill; from the bright colours of a Vasa parrot to the stealthy camouflage of a tawny owl - each has the power to enthrall. An expert, accessible introduction explains how birds evolved, with artists' impressions of their winged ancestors, the pterosaurs. It examines the special anatomy of birds, their keen senses, and how they have adapted to life in the air. Bird behaviour is also examined in detail - read how factors such as mating rituals, nest protection, rearing chicks, group living, hunting, feeding and migration are necessary to the survival of the species. This guide also features practical tips on fieldcraft, and colourful depictions of birds found in distinct types of habitat. A directory of up to 560 species features intricate colour artworks, and details everything from variable plumage to bill shapes, distribution, size, food, eggs and nest. The birds are grouped by habitat and type - including oceanic, estuarine, freshwater, woodland, open country and urban species - and include representatives from all the major avian families. With over 535 individual colour illustrations and photographs, plus maps detailing distribution, this encyclopaedic volume documents the sheer abundance of bird life found between the snowy Arctic tundra and the tip of southern Africa.
