Identify mammals of the Rocky Mountain region with this pocket-size guide.
Whether you’re hiking with your family, on a camping trip, or visiting your favorite park, you’re bound to come across wildlife—or signs that animals have left behind. If you’re curious about which critters have been there and which you’re likely to see, then Rocky Mountain Mammal Finder by Ron Russo is just what you need. With the handy, easy-to-use book, you can identify mammals by sight, as well as by their animal tracks, burrows, nests, scat, scratch or chew marks, and skulls/jaws.
The booklet begins with introductions of the various signs, followed by two dichotomous keys: one for identifying animal homes and another for scratch and chew marks. Simply answer a series of simple questions based on appearance to identify what type of mammal was there. A field guide section presents more than 60 mammals, complete with professional illustrations by Barbara Downs, range maps, and detailed descriptions to help you identify each species.
