“An essential synopsis of the mammalian diversity and natural history of the region for conservationists, land managers, citizen scientists and educators.”—David H. Riskind, retired director, Natural Resources Texas State Parks, 1972- 2020
“The updated version of Mammals of the Trans-Pecos Texas is an important treatment of the mammals that you could encounter in these mountain and desert ecosystems. The maps, identification keys, and illustrations provide a clear description of the mammal species of the Trans-Pecos along with important updates to their taxonomy. The first edition of this book had an important influence on my development as a biologist and this new edition will be an indispensable resource for current and future field biologists, land managers, and outdoor enthusiasts interested in the unique biodiversity of this region.”—Loren K. Ammerman, C. J. “Red” Davidson University professor of biology at Angelo State University and coauthor of Bats of Texas
“The second edition of The Mammals of Trans-Pecos Texas is a welcome revision after many decades. The authors have done an excellent job updating our knowledge of mammals in this unique region of the state and the book will surely stimulate more mammalian research there.”—Robert C. Dowler, retired professor of biology and interim curator of mammals, Angelo State Natural History Collections
