The Wild Wonders of Alabama

The Wild Wonders of Alabama explores native species in their unique habitats across the state. With over three million acres of wetlands, Alabama not only leads the United States in freshwater fish, mussels, snails, and crayfish but it is also a terrestrial hot spot for predatory, carnivorous plants. Young readers will explore an ancient, underwater cypress forest, the nation's second largest delta, and a collection of rare, colorful flowers found nowhere else. The book captures the rich beauty of the state's wild places, and makes for a perfect introduction to Alabama’s amazing natural heritage.
