Dale Peterson's text provides a natural and cultural history of the world's tallest and second-biggest land animals, describing in detail their biology and behavior. He offers a new perspective on the giraffes' place in our world, and argues for the stronger protection of these imposing yet endangered creatures and their elusive forest relatives, the okapis. Some 120 stunning photographs by award-winning wildlife photographer Karl Ammann capture the grace and elegance of Giraffa camelopardalis. Both beautiful and informative, the images document giraffes' complex interactions with each other and their environment"--Provided by the publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 599.638 Pe Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 599.638 Pe Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 599.638 Pe Checked In Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Nonfiction 599.638 Pe Checked In Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Nonfiction 599.638 Pe Checked In Add Copy to MyList
