Africa holds some of the most amazing cats on Earth but rarely are these given full-page embellishment and in-depth discussion as they are in Cats of Africa: Behavior, Ecology, and Conservation. The oversize stature makes CATS OF AFRICA look like a coffee table guide but the abundance of text and natural history promises both general-interest and college-level libraries a satisfying blend of color and fact. From feline anatomy and evolution to populations, social systems, threats and cooperative hunting patterns, CATS OF AFRICA is a 'must' for any collection serious about representing African natural history - and will find its home on many general-interest library shelves as a fascinating addition for the general public as well.

This book has alot of information on the cats of Africa and the pictures are awesome. I recommend this book for studys on the cats in Africa.

I am a huge fan of Luke Hunter and his work, and because of his research and Gerald Hindes beautiful photography, this is my favourite book. It's well written and easy to understand, yet still depicts enough detail for my university papers. Not only does it contain information on the well known cats of Africa (lions, Leopards etc) but it also includes information on the little known cats of Africa (golden cats, black footed cats etc). I would definately recommend this book to anyone with an interest in Africas facinating cats.
