At first we were hesitant to include this book since much of its content is covered in an "Atlas of Animal Anatomy." What caught our attention was a chapter on average measurements in species of cats, bears, dogs, and the American bison. Also the anatomy plates and drawings on the final 50 pages is worth the price. The plates include the wolf, bison, African lion, horse, and several pages of animals in motion. Overall, it rated a place in our book section and will be a valuable addition to your bookshelf. 144 pp, 9 1/2 x 12
