With detailed illustrations of over 150 mammals, including bears, wolves, deer, raccoons, and many others, Audubon brings the majesty and diversity of the American wilderness to life in vivid color. The accompanying text by John Bachman is equally engaging, offering insights into the behavior, habits, and ecology of these magnificent creatures.
