Maine Wildlife: A Folding Pocket Guide to Familiar Animals

By James Kavanagh and Waterford Press

Given Maine's position at the transition between hardwood forests and boreal forests as well as its status as the most forested state in the US, it's no surprise that the Pine Tree State has a rich assemblage of animals. From state mammal Moose to iconic birds like Atlantic Puffins and Northern Gannets, there is plenty to learn when exploring Maine's rugged landscapes, wetlands, and coasts. For many people, animals serve as the face of ecosystems, and it helps to get acquainted with the most familiar species. The portable reference Maine Wildlife is an ideal resource for doing so as it features beautiful illustrations of 140 common mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fishes, seashore creatures, butterflies, and other insects. Laminated for durability, this lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guide is the perfect companion for educators, learners, naturalists, birders, and wildlife enthusiasts who wish to forge deeper connections with Maine's animals and peer more deeply into their fascinating lives. Made in the USA.
