Wild NYC
Experience the Amazing Nature in and around New York City
Description
A vibrant, family friendly guide to the unexpected nature found in and around New York City
New York City may have a reputation as a concrete jungle, but in reality, it’s full of amazing wildlife. You just need to know where to find it! Equal parts natural history, field guide, and trip planner, Wild NYC has something for everyone. It looks at the factors that shape local nature—including fire, floods, and climate—and profiles over 100 local species, from easy-to-spot squirrels and praying mantids to more elusive humpback whales, purple finches, and so many more. Also included are descriptions of day trips that help you explore natural wonders on hiking trails, in public parks, and on your own street.
