An exceptional work!
This reference encyclopedia begins with a comprehensive introduction to the world of animals, examining the infinite variety of animal life forms and their major evolutionary processes. Animal anatomy, life cycles, and species classification are also covered. Next, a superbly illustrated section presents the main habitats and explains how animals have adapted to them, as well as the threats they face today.

Over 3,000 Enchanting Photographs
For each family or species, spectacular photographs taken in the wild provide a surprisingly vivid view of the animals. The most popular and impressive animals, such as the bear or the shark, are presented on a full double-page spread.

A Comprehensive Collection
This is the most comprehensive work on the animal world: all natural habitats and over 2,000 animal species or families are presented in detail through fact sheets. Each illustrated article includes a map and symbols indicating the distribution, habitat, as well as the size, breeding season and mode, as well as the conservation status of the species in question. The totality of all these articles constitutes a unique and invaluable database.
