Advises interested amateurs and professionals where to locate many of Australia’s mammals. The book describes Australia’s best mammal-watching sites state-by-state. It also includes a complete, annotated taxonomic list with hints on finding each species; sections on travel; and hints on finding and photographing mammals.

Australia has a rich and unique array of animals, including the largest diversity of marsupials on earth. The recent growth in ecotourism has increased the popularity of mammal-spotting, particularly whale and dolphin-watching, but also spotting of perennial tourist favorites such as koalas and kangaroos.
