Rezension zu „Larger Carnivores of the African Savannas “
From the reviews:"A very accessible introduction to aspects of the biology of nine species of carnivore. The text is enhanced by attractive drawings anda fine photographs. For each species, an outline is given of social behaviour, reproduction and young, range use, activity and movement, feeding ecology, relationship with other wildlife and population dynamics." (ASLIB book guide - an international guide to English language scientific books)
"... thought provoking, interesting, and easy to read. ... Clive Walker's artwork is beautiful, as are the photographs. There is some sort of illustration on almost every page, illustrating behaviours, tracks, scats and habitats. In this regard, this book is far more interesting and attractive than a typical scientific book. In short, this book provides a good review of large African carnivores for serious amateurs or students, and a good introduction for professionals." (Environmental Conservation, UK)
