A151 Mammals
This is a beautiful poster that is cherished by animal lovers, but it’s also an
extremely useful educational tool, as it provides a comprehensive overview of
the subject. It is divided into three sections, one for each type of mammal: the
egg-laying monotremes, the pouched marsupials, and the familiar placental
mammals. The latter is divided into 19 subsections, one for each of the orders.
Superb, highly detailed illustrations show 98 representative species, including
everything from the aardvark to the zebra.
This poster is an excellent way to introduce young children to a great many
animals. However, its outstanding organization and presentation make it an
invaluable reference chart for teachers, students, and professionals involved
or interested in zoology, comparative anatomy, and taxonomy, the naming and
classification of life forms.
