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.
Bringing together some of Southern Africa's finest 'herp' photographers
We were extremely fortunate that eight photographers generously donated their stunning species images to this book: Gus Benson, Miguel da Fonseca, Courtney Hundermark, Dylan Leonard, Berkeley Lumb, Gary Kyle Nicolau, Tyrone Ping and Warren Schmidt.
Clear - Concise - Informative - Convenient - Affordable
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.
