About the Author
David Alderton is a noted writer on the living world. He is active internationally in conservation matters, especially CITES and its work on the protection of the world's threatened species.
From School Library Journal
YA-A broad, comprehensive overview of the world's wild felines. The first half of the book covers the animals' anatomy, way of life, and interaction with humans. The second half is a species-by-species look at the specific cats. A map and a description indicates where they can be found. The author's ecological concerns are evident throughout. The full-color photographs are detailed and intriguing and amount to perhaps a third of the book. Appendixes list conservationist groups and the taxonomy of the species and subspecies. The pages are almost of plate quality. A compact volume that contains a wealth of information for reports.

Wild Cats of the World
Seller: Librairie La forêt des Livres, Lévis, QC, Canada
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Soft cover. Condition: New. Tanner, Bruce (illustrator). « Lithe and graceful, mysterious and independent, cats have been both worshipped and feared by humans. Here they all are, from large, ferocious lions and tigers to the smaller but still fierce bobcats and servals. Dozens of full-color, close-up pictures reveal a variety of moods as well as the details of wildcat physiology. A panther opens its mouth wide, showing its long, sharp incisors. The pupils of a fishing cat become round and wide in response to light. A serval shuts its eyes for a nap--but its sensitive ears remain alert in case of danger. And take a good look at a Geoffroy's cat's whiskers, which play an important sensory role. You'll see every stripe on the tiger and spot on the cheetah. A wealth of facts tell about hunting techniques, methods of communication, reproduction, the care and development of the cubs, evolution and distribution, and what efforts are being made to save these beautiful animals from extinction.».
