The tapirs of Brazil are quiet, elusive creatures, left over
from the prehistoric age. Pati, a native
of Brazil, has made their study and their saving her life’s work. Though seldom seen, they are important part
of Brazil’s ecosystem, well worth protecting.
Montgomery and Bishop bring the years of dedication of Pati’s team to
life. Excellent science and inspiring
work form the core of another first class addition to the Scientists in the
Field series.
