The Sunbird Series was created to provide pocket guides that are clear, concise and affordable.
The first book in the series is A Pocket Guide to the Snakes of Lesotho, which has never had its own dedicated snake guide.....
Until now!
The first-ever dedicated book on Lesotho's snakes
The first-ever pocket guide on Eswatini's snakes
Title: A Pocket Guide to the Snakes of Lesotho
Publishing date: 2025
Size: 95 x 190mm
Pages: 109
Images: 81 species images + 12 additional images
Synopsis: This pocket guide is the first book to describe all 21 recorded snake species found in Lesotho.
Of those 21 species, only 3 are capable of inflicting a fatal bite on humans. Despite this, many of the remaining species are needlessly killed, either due to misidentification or fear.
This book hopes to provide a quick and easy-to-use identification guide for anyone visiting this mountain kingdom.
We were extremely fortunate that fourteen photographers generously donated their stunning species images to this book.
All 21 snake species are beautifully presented with detailed descriptions and over 80 stunning photographs.
This makes A Pocket Guide to the Snakes of Lesotho a must not only for the hiker and naturalist, but anyone visiting Lesotho.
