Synopsis
New York's wildlife has always played an important role in the history of the human beings inhabiting the state. Native Americans depended on birds, mammals, and fish for sustenance. Later, early Europeans immigrants hunted, trapped, and fished in the region both for food and for profit. Although the state's wildlife is still an important resource for hunters, trappers, and fishermen, wildlife is also increasingly important for its intrinsic, aesthetic value. For many New Yorkers today, experiencing nature and enjoying wildlife in its natural habitat has become an important recreational activity that serves to enhance their lives. But despite an inherent interest and fascination with wildlife, many New Yorkers are largely unaware of the diversity of species inhabiting their state. This volume is intended to provide an introduction to the state's fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals. In The New York Wildlife Encyclopedia , nationally known naturalist Scott Shupe has collected information on all the wildlife that reside in the Empire State. The first in a series of state wildlife encyclopedias, this book will be a handy, usable, layman's guide to New York's wildlife. Included are over 800 color photographs, depicting the different species of mammals, reptiles, amphibians, birds, and fish, while also offering over 600 range maps to show their territory. Along with basic information for the biology of each animal, Shupe includes the size, habitat, and abundance of each species located in the state. Whether you're a lover of the outdoors, photography, or are looking to learn more about your state, this comprehensive guide will teach you about the wonderful wildlife that covers the water, earth, and skies of New York.

- r***1 (178)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe book was exactly as described and arrived quickly. The only problem is a recurring one with this seller and other similar sellers - the book is poorly packaged in a plastic envelope and gets heavily bumped in shipping. I would like to see the books wrapped before shipment, but I understand this can't be done for cost reason. Luckily it isn't an expensive book, and I will continue to purchase basic books from this seller. A+++++
- 4***1 (1637)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseBook arrived quickly and is pretty close to "Very Good" description. Value priced and I'm glad I made the purchase as this is an excellent read. However, the book was mailed loose inside an over-sized plastic bag without any protection. Wrapped in a bubble wrap jacket would be a big help. A book can take a beating in USPS transit without some buffer. I can't tell if the bumps and dings were original or occurred in transit. I'd prefer to pay for shipping than have it sent with no protection.
