Nature Unpacked is the ultimate travelling companion for those visiting the southern African bush – whether for the first time or for the tenth. Much more than a field guide to the wildlife of the region, it provides insight into the behaviour and adaptation of the more common mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs, insects, spiders and scorpions that are found here. Identification of common trees and shrubs is made simple by way of easily accessible descriptions and close-up representative images.

FEATURES THAT MAKE THIS BOOK A MUST-HAVE:
An all-in-one guide that covers the most common mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs, insects, spiders, scorpions, trees and flowering plants found in the region.

Information is interpretative rather than just dry facts typical of other field guides.
The colourful and creative layout allows the reader to engage visually with the content.
Other features include distribution maps, animal spoor, icons and Quick ID tables.
