The fully updated second edition of the leading field guide for African safaris, providing unmatched coverage of all the continent’s land mammals in a handy, portable volume

Originally published in 2004, The Kingdon Pocket Guide to African Mammals quickly became the field guide of choice to take on safari in Africa, providing the most authoritative and comprehensive coverage available in a handy, portable volume. Now this popular, practical, and beautifully illustrated guide has been thoroughly revised and updated to make it even better than before. Adapted from the revised second edition of the acclaimed and much larger Kingdon Field Guide to African Mammals, this second edition of the pocket guide features updated species information and taxonomy and includes several new species. It presents more than 780 superb color illustrations, including several new ones, and 520 distribution maps―200 more than in the previous edition. The concise text, greatly condensed from the larger field guide, focuses on essential information for field identification and distribution, while the illustrations are conveniently located on facing pages. Now, more than ever, The Kingdon Pocket Guide to African Mammals is a must-have companion for anyone interested in African wildlife―from the tourist on safari to the experienced naturalist.
