Mammals of Indiana

This highly anticipated new edition of Mammals of Indiana by John O. Whitaker, Jr., and Russell E. Mumford, first published by Indiana University in 1982, places strong emphasis on ecology with descriptions of Indiana's habitats, climate, and vegetation and detailed species accounts. This well-illustrated book will be a boon to residents of Indiana, many of whom have little acquaintance with the state's 57 species of wild, mostly small, secretive, and nocturnal mammals, and it is sure to please the most avid ecology enthusiast. Summarizing current knowledge about Indiana's mammal species, the volume will also be an important reference for biologists, veterinarians, and wildlife managers throughout the Midwest and beyond.

John O. Whitaker, Jr., is Professor of Ecology and Organismal Biology at Indiana State University. He is author of Keys to the Vertebrates of the Eastern United States and co-author of Mammals of the Eastern United States, as well as many scientific papers on mammals of Indiana and elsewhere.

Russell E. Mumford is Emeritus Professor of Wildlife Management in the Department of Forestry and Natural Resources at Purdue University's School of Agriculture. He is author of Waterfowl Management in Indiana and Distribution of the Mammals of Indiana.
