Climate change, invasive species and human impact all threaten the specialized high-elevation flora and fauna treasured for their perseverance and rarity. With 350 full-color photographs, an easy-to-reference flowering chart, and expert advice, this guide helps you identify and protect the plants, birds, insects, amphibians, and mammals of the alpine zone.
