Synopsis

This little book is a visual identification guide for animals likely to be encountered on game drives in the eastern bushveld game reserves and parks in Southern Africa. The bushveld houses over 200 larger mammals, more than 500 bird species and a wealth of reptiles, amphibians, fish, and invertebrates. Animals encountered on game drives can be from the entire spectrum of the animal world, but this booklet concentrates on the larger mammal species, only a few small species, and some of the common birds that may be seen.
