About The Book
An 840-acre natural oasis in a concrete jungle, New York's Central Park is a magnet for wildlife, including over 200 species of birds. This beautifully illustrated guide highlights over 140 familiar and unique species of mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, pond invertebrates, fishes and butterflies and includes a park map featuring prominent wildlife-viewing areas. Laminated for durability, this lightweight, pocket-sized folding guide is an excellent source of portable information and ideal for field use by visitors and residents alike. Researched with the assistance of the Central Park Conservancy, a portion of the proceeds go to support the important work of this organization. Made in the USA.

Raves and Reviews
The survival guides are absolutely packed full of information but skip all of the fluff. This makes them stick out from other similar guides that seem too intent on making for an entertaining read and not intent enough on providing the cold, hard facts of survival ... I personally carry my Wilderness First Aid Guide with me whenever I’m out for a hike or out exploring the back country on my snowboard during the winter. - Mountain Weekly News
Each guide includes a huge amount of information for such a small space, but skips the confusing fluff. Specifically, I like the use of images and illustrations to demonstrate tasks and the common sense tips included throughout the guides. - The Active Explorer
