Olinguitos live in cool, humid cloud forests in the mountains. For many years, scientists mistook their pelts and skeletons for olingos, a related mammal. But in the early 2000s, Kristofer Helgen noticed something different about some olingos. He suspected they might be a separate mammal species-a rare discovery.

Simple text and photographs introduce wolves, depicting how they hunt and travel in packs, communicate, and care for their pups.

"This fascinating series takes a very simple look at animal classifications, with each book focussing on a different group of animal. This book is about mammals: what they do, how they behave, and how these characteristics are different from other groups of animals. Beautifully illustrated with colorful photographs, the book shows many examples of different types of mammals in their natural environment."--

This field guide highlights 100 mammals found throughout the world. Readers will gain a greater understanding about the behaviors and appearance of each mammal and will be able to identify these creatures after seeing the vivid photographs and useful labels within the book.
