Special features in each section include ANIMAL PROFILES spreads that focus in-depth on a particular animal and ANIMAL RECORDS spreads that highlight superlatives such as fastest, tallest, smallest, etc. Exclusive FROM-THE-FIELD reports, that focus on National Geographic explorers and their stories about the animals they study, can only be found in this animal encyclopedia, adding to its entertainment and educational value.Animals are organized by taxonomy within each section (mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, and invertebrates), accompanied by common and scientific name, fact boxes (featuring lifespan, habitat, and size) and text describing diet, special features, and any other pertinent information. Symbols representing conservation and habitat status highlight a high-interest topic for kids, while color-coding on each section provides for ease of navigation.

    adaquate

    I have purchased 2 National geographic animal encyclopedias. A 2007 and a 2012 publication. Both have merit but not as extensive as I would like with omissions. The 2012 is more for children, I prefer the 2007 edition. but use them together . Both are adequate as a support to the BBC TV planet Earth series. What would be of interest would be a publication and college course for Planet Earth. That coupled with the Unearthed and how the universe works on the science channel is the best thing on TV
