Collins Field Guide To New Zealand Wildlife

There are guidebooks for birds, guidebooks for mammals, even guidebooks for reptiles, but little exists for all New Zealand's wildlife. This practical and portable reference guide lists well over 250 species, from southern right whales to springtails, from kakapo to kokopu, and it contains all the basic information you need to identify some of the most commonly encountered animals in New Zealand, both native and introduced. The concise text, distribution maps and colour photographs tell what an animal looks like, where it lives, what it is called, and what it does.

With superior photography, this book is presented in a handy format for travelling and tramping, with wipe-clean vinyl covers.
