Synopsis
This compact field guide to the identification of Southern African mammals based on their spoor, droppings and skulls has been accepted as the standard work on the subject. This edition offers up-to-date information on identification through signs. This edition provides new illustrations for a number of species. It also features illustrations of skulls for all of the carnivores. The 8-page section of comparative spoor is still a feature, updated with the most recent information available. It includes distribution maps (88 in all) and full-colour photographs (some 150) of each species within its habitat.

Great guide to African wildlife
I bought this book whilst living in South Africa. The author has a great depth of knowledge about the wildlife of africa, it's habits and how to track it. The book will give both an insight to the animals and will be invaluable to anyone going on holiday to one of the great African game reserves.
A great book by a great game guide.
