This book is the end product of ten years of investigation. What began as a monthly 'Wildlife Facts' feature for the El Yunque National Forest's website in January, 2002 eventually comprised over 100 individual descriptions and full color illustrations of El Yunque rainforest animals. It seemed a natural progression to convert this remarkable collection into a 'portable' guide-book that would fit easily into a jacket-pocket or book bag...

Tropical forest enthusiasts and natural history 'buffs' will also be fascinated to discover the immense diversity of the animal populations that are described and pictured in full color on these pages - all of which thrive in El Yunque; America's only tropical rainforest...

"Birds, Beasts and Bureaucrats" is a rollicking adventure to remote islets, hidden caves, and tropical forests tracing a young naturalist's steps to study and conserve the extraordinary wildlife of Puerto Rico, an island paradise in the heart of the Caribbean. Exotic birds, fish-eating bats, un-described frogs, and even the "strong-voiced cave-mouth" an extraordinary nocturnal specter, are among the menagerie of exotic wildlife encountered as we accompany the author to the most remote corners of the island in an effort to save these and other unique critters for posterity.
