Costa Rican Wildlife, An Introduction to Familiar Species, is a must-have reference guide for beginners and experts alike. This guide provides a simplified introduction to species that are familiar, widespread and/or unusual in Costa Rica. The Pocket Traveller Eco-Travel Guides provide simplified reference to the prominent wildlife species of the world's most popular eco-tourism destinations. Each pocket-sized, folding guide identifies up to 150 species of common and unique animals in each area and most feature a map highlighting natural vegetation zones. Each is laminated for durability. (31/2 X 81/4 folded, opens to 22 X 81/4, color illustrations)
Reader ReviewsAlthough this pocket field guide is extremely limited - only listed three species of butterflies - it did enable us to identify the difference between Howler, Spider and Capuchin monkeys. It sufficed as a guide for my week long (and first visit) to Costa Rica. However, if you are spending more time in the rainforest, I would recommend a more detailed guide for your area(s) of interest. Enjoy.
