Mammals of the South-West Pacific and Moluccan Islands
by Tim Flannery
These islands are home to a lot of endemic bat species that have evolved there over thousands of years. The Australian naturalist who produced this book has spent his life looking at these mammals, especially the bats. I’ve been over to the Solomon Islands to look at the problems that endemic species encounter, and found many species are seriously threatened with extinction. Sudden changes to the environment can easily cause extinction and man keeps changing the environment.

The best books on Bats, recommended by Phil Richardson
Bats are remarkably like us in many ways — social animals with complex lives, who put a lot of energy into rearing their young. They also make up around one-fifth of the world’s mammal species. Phil Richardson, co-founder of the UK’s Bat Conservation Trust, recommends five books to learn more about bats around the world.
