Ohio is located in two major watersheds — Great Lakes-St. Lawrence and Mississippi River — and hosts numerous ecosystems, making it a wildlife-rich state. By exploring its tallgrass prairies, rivers, marshes, sand beaches, and hardwood forests, you can find and learn more about such iconic species as Sandhill Crane, Bald Eagle, state bird Northern Cardinal, state mammal White-tailed Deer, and numerous species of salamanders. Animals often represent the face of a landscape, so it helps to get acquainted with the most representative species to establish a solid foundation of knowledge on which to build. You can readily do this with the portable reference Ohio Wildlife, which includes beautiful illustrations of 140 common mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fishes, butterflies, and other insects, as well as an ecoregion map showing over 20 wildlife-viewing hotspots and learning sites. Laminated for durability, this lightweight, 12-panel folding pocket guide is the perfect companion for educators, learners, naturalists, birders, and wildlife enthusiasts who wish to connect more meaningfully with the land through its animals. Made in the USA.
