Endangered Animals of Africa
It is a tragic fact that some of Africa's most magnificent animals--such as the hefty black rhino and the beautifully patterned Grevy's zebra--are in danger of extinction. This book describes Africa's different habitats and explains the various reasons that species become endangered. Each chapter profiles an endangered species and outlines measures that are being used to help Africa's animals survive.
