Michael Clark obviously has a great affection for badgers, for this
shines through in his illustrations and in his writing. Whittet Books, the
original publisher of this lovely hardback book should be congratulated on
producing an excellent educational book, suitable for all ages.
Michael Clark's acclaimed study of the biology and
natural history of the badger has been completely updated for this popular
collection and now also includes a description of the controversy surrounding
the culling of badgers in response to the prevalence of tuberculosis in cattle Lovely educational book about Badgers.
We bought this book,
knowing nothing about it, and were pleasantly surprised. Obviously written
by a badger-expert, the book covers badgers, their lifestyle and
environment in good detail, but remains a very accessible read. As an
educational work, we would have thought it suitable for any-one from about
10-years upwards, though it is equally well readable by adults without
being condescending. It also includes many well-drawn illustrations.
Overall Michael Clark's affection for the animals shines through, and we
are glad to recommend this book. Click below to buy this
