As a remote archipelago far offshore in the Pacific Ocean, Hawaii hosts a unique and varied assemblage of animals, making it a living laboratory full of intrigue and exciting opportunities for exploration and study. The varied terrain supports major habitats like coastal shrublands, lowland dry forests, montane wet forests, bogs, and shore cliffs. These are home to many endemic birds, one endemic mammal ¿ Hawaiian Hoary Bat ¿ and thousands of unique insects. When beginning to explore such a biodiverse assemblage of life forms, it helps to have a starting point like the portable reference Hawaii Wildlife. It features beautiful illustrations of 140 common and familiar mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fishes, seashore creatures, butterflies, and other insects as well as an ecoregion map showing over 20 wildlife-viewing hotspots and learning sites. Laminated for durability, this 12-panel folding pocket guide is a fitting companion for educators, learners, naturalists, birders, and wildlife enthusiasts who wish to identify Hawaii's representative animals and peer more closely into their fascinating lives.
