But think about the amount of work it has taken to produce the whole series: sorting out the latest taxonomy; finding thousands of pictures; writing accounts for every species and finding the right people to author them; preparing illustrations for every mammal on the planet. This was a Herculean project and I am sure that \u00a0many mammal watchers are extremely grateful to all involved. \/&#8230;\/ <\/span><span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: #444444;\">The final volume ensures the handbook \u00a0ends on a high note. I have not read it in detail yet, and I am sure there will be disagreements with some of the taxonomic choices. But the photographs are fabulous, and feature several people who regularly report on this site &#8211; I quickly spotted pictures from Vladimir Dinets Jose Gabriel Martinez and a few from me. \u00a0Some of the in flight shots in particular are superb &#8211; I probably shouldn&#8217;t add any of them here for copyright reasons but check out a selection on the <a href=\"https:\/\/archive.lynxnaturebooks.com\/product\/handbook-of-the-mammals-of-the-world-volume-9\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color: #2585b2;\">publisher&#8217;s \u00a0site<\/span><\/a>.
