Added to the staggering avian diversity is a rich mammal fauna including Indian Rhinoceros, Tiger, Red Panda, Asian Elephant and Leopard, making Nepal one of world's great wildlife-watching destinations.

Every species of bird recorded in Nepal is covered in this fantastic field guide. More than 790 species are featured with illustrations and concise text covering essential information for quick and easy reference., covering voice, habits, habitats, altitudinal range, distribution and status. The text is accompanied by accurate distribution maps.
