This is a new release of the original 1957 edition.
During the past 35 years the author's field investigations have
covered much of the Pacific Coast of North America between Point
Barrow and Lower California. Studies have been made of the animal
life in practically all of our western national parks. The
photographs and data in this publication are based largely upon
this lengthy field experience. It has been impossible to photograph
or even to mention briefly all of the several hundred species of
birds and mammals found in all of the western national parks and
monuments, so I have endeavored to select and to present a few
representatives of the outstanding or characteristic species found
in some of these areas. The list of both park areas and animals is
necessarily incomplete. I have been asked repeatedly by park
visitors what kinds of animals would most likely be found in a
given national park. For their convenience, the various species of
animals are listed according to the scientific classification,
using common names, followed by a list of the principal western
parks and monuments in which the creatures may be found. As here
used, the term "species" includes all its subspecies. Thus, all
geographic races of the black bear are grouped under the one
heading: Black Bear.
