“As a field biologist for the Illinois Natural History Survey, I had easy access to mammalogists. Even though retired, I am still roaming the state, and I still have a mammalogist at my fingertips, Joyce Hofmann’s Mammals of Illinois. Not only does it contain relevant identification information but also fascinating mammal facts. It will definitely be in my field pack.”–Susan L. Post, author of Hiking Illinois
