 Natural History of New Mexico

"With 149 species in the state, New Mexico is one of the richest and most diversified settings for mammals anywhere in the New World -- only California and the highlands of northern Central America have more species."

                                                        -James S. Findley, The Natural History of New Mexican Mammals
