The Mammals of North Dakota is the first comprehensive work on the mammalian fauna of the state since Vernon Bailey¿s early ¿Biological Survey of North Dakota¿ published in 1926. This book is intended to be used by students, professional biologists, and serious naturalists.Detailed accounts of each of the state¿s 86 mammal species include common, scientific, and known Native American names, and sections on Species Description, Distribution, Habitat, Ecology and Behavior, Reproduction, Status and Conservation, and Selected References, Important introductory chapters deal with the mammalian biogeography of the state, the mammalian paleofauna of North Dakota (John Hoganson), and the principal habitats of North Dakota (Bill Jensen). Additional chapters deal with investigating mammals and taxonomic keys for species identification.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 434-454) and index.
