Alaska Wildlife - Folding Pocket Guide

Alaska Wildlife introduces commonly seen mammals, marine life and birds. This richly illustrated and detailed guide is printed on laminate material and folds to fit in a pocket. A map of wildlife sanctuaries and parks is provided on the back cover for the vacationer or nature enthusiast.

Alaska covers more than 665,000 square miles and 32 ecoregions, and this Waterford Press guide narrows it down to 140 of the state's common mammals, birds, amphibians, fishes and seashore creatures. Familiar animals like the polar bear appear alongside the bowhead whale, Alaska's state marine mammal.

The back panel has an ecoregion map that points to more than 20 good wildlife-viewing sites around the state. The folding guide is laminated for durability in the field and is made in the USA, so it stands up to rain, boats and backpacks on an Alaska trip.
