Animal Life Cycles describes and illustrates the various, and sometimes unique, ways in which mammals raise their young and live their lives. More than seventy types of mammals are represented -- from the chimpanzee, which does not gain its independence until the age of seven or eight -- to the hamster, which is already fending for itself after only two months. Other animals profiled include African wild dogs, antelopes, badgers, chimpanzees, otters, platypuses, shrews, wild cattle, and much more.

Features include:
-- A vivid synopsis of each animal's life, including how it learns to survive, achieves independence, and mates
-- Superb illustrations and full-color photographs depicting the various stages that each animal goes through
-- Points of interest highlighting special aspects of each animal's life, including breeding season, litter size, and average life expectancy.
