Each species is showcased in a professional-quality photograph that's paired with such neat-to-know details as habitat, range, and preferred food sources. Illustrations of the critter's tracks complement the information, and a "Did You Know?" paragraph provides fascinating trivia worth sharing with family, friends, and teachers.
