Beautiful illustrations, range maps, identification tips, and natural history information accompany each featured species. The rest of this lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guide is dedicated to the evolution, behavior, habitats, and survival of bats as well as handy tips for what to do when encountering a bat and how each of us can conserve and protect these remarkable creatures. Laminated for use in all conditions, this guide is a terrific resource for educators, learners, naturalists, and wildlife enthusiasts. Made in the USA.
