### 4/5 — Mostly good.

*2020-01-01*

The physical book is great. It is the go to book for 
Southern African mammals. It is written for scientists which makes it even more perplexing that there is no search capability for Latin names!! What? It’s true. You cannot type a Latin name in the search box and find anything. That’s really annoying
