Mammals of Minnesota Field Guide

If size matters, this small book is packed with information about Minnesota animals. This field guide has information on mice, rats, muskrats, beaver, bats, squirrels, gophers, weasels, skunks, rabbits, hares, porcupine, racoon, opossum, dog and cat families, antelope and dear families, bear, and bison. There are 75 species, all native to Minnesota, except two. It is organized by family, then by size from small to large. Each animal has a four page profile with color photos, silhouette, size, description, habitat, food, mating habits and young, tracks and other notes by the author Stan Tekiela. This is an essential resource for school and public libraries.
