Mammals Factfiles

What's the difference between a sea lion and a seal? Are buffalo and bison the same thing? How long do bears hibernate? Are porcupines dangerous? Spanning the diverse realm of mammals, this informative volume includes sections on carnivores, sea mammals, primates, large herbivores, small mammals, and marsupials and monotremes. Find out how large carnivores such as lions and cheetahs, as well as smaller animals such as weasels and otters hunt for food. A brief introduction answers the general question of what makes a mammal, and a glossary ensures that everything is understood.Andromeda is the author of 'Mammals Factfiles' with ISBN 9781402702938 and ISBN 1402702930.
