Because of its central situation in the Eastern United States
and the variety of habitats to be found within its borders,
Kentucky has an interesting mixture of mammals, including some
characteristic of the Deep South, the West, and the North. All 63
species native to the state are described and illustrated in this
volume, the fifth in a series of guides to the wildlife of
Kentucky.
The book is conveniently arranged by orders, families, and
species, and identification is facilitated by illustrated keys and
by a series of dramatic color photographs. In the account of each
species, the authors describe its distinguishing features, similar
species with which it might be confused, its habitat, range,
characteristic behavior, and life history. Much of the information
in these accounts is drawn from the authors' personal observation
of the animals in the wild and, in some cases, in captivity.
