The alphabetical arrangement makes it easy to find information on almost any topic you can think of, and you can be sure the information is correct and up-to-date.
The photos represent the work of dozens of photographers in the United States, England, Europe, and South America, brought together to produce the most comprehensive and well-illustrated single volume ever published on terrarium animals. Included is extensive coverage of such popular genera as Lampropeltis, Elaphe, Anolis, Geochelone, and Hyla, but the true rarities are also well-illustrated, including genera and species most readers will have never seen before anywhere.
This volume is the perfect answer to the terrarium keeper's dilemma of attempting to find where an animal originated and what type of habitat it requires. It is the obvious first place to look for a solution or a hint to all your questions while having fiin looking at the marvelous photos at the same time.
