A Naturalist’s Guide to the Mammals of Southeast Asia is a photographic identification guide to 129 species of mammal commonly found in Southeast Asia (covering Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam).
High quality photographs from some of the region’s top nature photographers are accompanied by detailed species descriptions which include nomenclature, size, distribution, habits and habitat, as well as interesting snippets of information about the mammals. The user-friendly introduction covers details on habitats, advice on mammal watching, notes on taxonomy and information on threats to the wildllife. Also included is an all-important checklist of all of the mammals of South-East Asia encompassing, for each species, its common and scientific name, IUCN status as at 2011.
Chris R. Shepherd and Loretta Ann Shepherd are a husband-and-wife team now living in Canada. They work on wildlife conservation issues throughout Southeast Asia, where both strongly believe that an increased appreciation for wildlife is the key to conservation success.
