In South Africa we are privileged to have a very diverse natural environment.

Our range of publications (including field guides) on the various aspects of the natural environment, count amongst the best (if not THE best) in the world. Regarding the great variety of mammals to be found in our region a number of very useful books have been published in recent years. The encyclopaedic Aardwolf to Zebra certainly deserves top position. The book contains comprehensive information on 67 mammals, 2 reptiles and 1 bird.
