What do they contain?
The guide is separated into five classes of vertebrates: birds, mammals, amphibians, reptiles and finally exotic species which include birds, reptiles and the final class of fish. The guide has a total of 130 species and more than 250 photographs to illustrate it. In order to make it easier to read, the guide contains several different colors for each of the groups.
