These are the fish that the fisherman seek. Outstanding
original illustrations of bass, perch, trout and all the
other popular species. Species are listed by both common
name and biological name. This is the first of a two-part
set. Salt Water Game Fish is scheduled to be published next
year. STATUS: Almost complete. We still need
three more illustrations. Their placement and size is

Mammals are the most
well-known animals on Earth. They were named for their
unique mammary glands which produce milk to feed the young.
This soft tissue does not fossilize. To differentiate modern
mammals from their more primitive ancestors, paleontologists
use a distinguishing feature shared by all living mammals:
the three middle ear bones used for hearing. These bones are
now the defining characteristic of the clade.
Animals are now being reclassified in accordance with the new cladistic
classification system. None of the new systems proposed for
mammals has been widely accepted so the Linnaeus
classification system is still used. Under it there are 29
orders, 153 families and about 1,200 genera. There are
approximately 5,400 species ranging in size from the 1.2
inch Thumblebee Bat to the 110 foot Blue Whale.
This great new series of poster explores the largest and
most popular order. They identify and present every family
in the order. Each is briefly introduced and the number of
known species is cited. A great many beautiful, highly
detailed and anatomically accurate illustrations show an
outstanding selection of representational species. North
American mammals are shown whenever possible.
All of the titles in this series have the same graphic
design, making them a matched set. The warm colors go well
with almost all decors. |

STATUS: Present plants call for all the
first four titles in this series to be published and
released together.Carnivores, Primates and
Ungulates are complete. Illustrations are now being
prepared for Marsupials. |
