Fascinating Mammals: Conservation and Ecology in the Mid-Eastern States

Rating:
Summary: Adequate, but not wonderful
Review: Many of the mammals discussed in this book are common throughout the US, so the book is of interest to more than just people in the central Atlantic states.
The book consists of short essays answering various questions about different mammals, along the lines of "Why are grizzly bears more aggressive than black bears?" Interesting stuff, but not earth-shattering. One good point is that it covers some of the less charismatic animals such as racoons and shrews. Decent book, but it didn't set my world on fire.
