Rodents from France
|
This book (in french) is a new release of the 1977 rodents' fauna from France by Le Louarn and Saint Girons. In a first part rodents are generically presented (1) in relation with their environment: climate, biotopes and habitats, predation and population dynamics, (2) in relation with man: damages, sanitary problems, fight and protection. Keys are provided for identifying species. In a second part the monographs for the 31 rodents' species of France are presented with, for each of them, the available knowledge: description, distribution, habitats, biological and behavioural traits. The illustrations propose an overview of the book (cover, contents) as well as its general bibliography on rodents.
