Where do animals build their homes? How do they survive in very hot and cold climates? Why are so many species endangered? Discover the answers to all these questions and many more in The Animal Atlas. This lavishly illustrated nature book takes children on a tour, continent by continent, to meet the animals of the world. Within each section, the book travels through different biomes, such as forests, deserts, and lakes; and specific regions, from the Everglades to the Galapagos, Himalayas, and Great Barrier Reef.

The Animal Atlas is packed with beautiful, life-like illustrations of mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and insects that live all around the world, from the Amazon to Antarctica. Each species is carefully hand-drawn to show details of fur, feathers, or scales, while accompanying captions reveal fascinating facts about the animal's behaviour. Maps show precisely where the animals are found. For example, Australia's iconic koala can be tracked down to the east coast of the country.

The book starts with an introduction to animal groups and habitats, and finishes with endangered species and a gallery of amazing, record-breaking animals. First published in 1992, this atlas has been updated for the 2020 edition and is a beautiful gift for a new generation of zoologists.

动物在哪里建房？它们如何在炎热和寒冷的气候中生存？为什么这么多物种受到威胁？在《动物图集》中找到所有这些问题的答案以及更多其他答案。这本插图丰富的自然书带孩子们逐个大陆游览，以认识世界上的动物。在每个部分中，这本书都穿越了不同的生物群落，例如森林，沙漠和湖泊。以及从沼泽地到加拉帕戈斯群岛，喜马拉雅山和大堡礁的特定区域。

动物图集挤满了从亚马逊到南极洲遍布世界各地的哺乳动物，鸟类，爬行动物，两栖动物和昆虫的逼真的生动插图。每个物种都经过精心手绘，以显示毛皮，羽毛或鳞片的详细信息，而附带的标题则揭示了有关动物行为的有趣事实。地图精确地显示了发现动物的位置。例如，可以将澳大利亚的标志性树袋熊追溯到该国的东海岸。

该书首先介绍了动物群和栖息地，最后以濒临灭绝的物种和令人惊叹的创纪录动物画廊作为结尾。该地图集于1992年首次发布，现已针对2020年版本进行了更新，是新一代动物学家的精美礼物。
