A Natural History of Belize by Samuel Bridgewater

A Natural History of Belize by Samuel Bridgewater

Written for a popular audience and richly illustrated, this book presents the first detailed portrait of the habitats, biodiversity, and ecology of Belize, one of the earth's most biologically profuse places.

Despite its history of disturbance, or maybe in part because of it, the Maya Forest is ranked as an important regional biodiversity hot spot and provides some of the last regional habitats for endangered species such as the jaguar, the scarlet macaw, Baird's tapir, and Morelet's crocodile..A good general introduction to the Chiquibul Forest of Belize. Ian Paulsen, GRRLSCIENTIST hosted by The Guardian, 15th January 2012
