This atlas presents an in-depth overview of the issue of endangered species. A series of maps reveals the extent of such global problems as natural disasters, pollution and population growth. This is followed by detailed surveys of the seven key biological areas of the world, which explain the problems they face, and identify those animals and plants at risk. The final section describes what steps are being taken at international and national levels to preserve and conserve our planet's natural heritage, charting the successes and failures of the conservation movement, and setting out what the individual can do to help.

"Open the wildest atlas ever--and learn amazing facts about a variety of animals and the people who help them. Meet animals fierce and timid, large and small, fast and slow, and even some that are already extinct. This stunningly illustrated atlas takes children across the globe, from polar ice and tundra to the rainforests and desert, so they can locate each creature precisely and understand its unusual characteristics and behavior. There are Asian lions and Indian rhinoceros, wolves and wildcats, lemurs and sharks, wombats and koalas, howler monkeys and tapirs, and so many more. In addition, the atlas introduces seven inspiring people (one for each continent) who have dedicated their lives to saving our planet's fauna, including: Charles Darwin, who encountered giant tortoises on the Galapagos Island; Konrad Lorenz, a Nobel Prize winner who analyzed the behavior of graylag geese; Dian Fossey, renowned for her work with the gorillas of Rwanda; Armand David, who gathered evidence on the giant panda; and President Ulysses S. Grant, who helped create Yellowstone Park, thus protecting the endangered bison."--

What makes Animal Atlas unique is the maps themselves. Each one is individually commissioned in 3D, with detail to show the habitat of each animal, as well as its geographic location. This reveals an astonishing amount of information about the behaviour of these animals, from how polar bears adapt to survive in freezing Arctic conditions to how African elephants survive in the heat of the Sahara desert.
