The Southern Appalachian Mountains, stretching from West Virginia to Alabama, are home to an amazing and diverse group of mammals, both large and small, from the astonishing Star-Nosed Mole to the adorable Southern Flying Squirrel, from the mythical Black Bear to the playful River Otter.

Wild & Furry Animals of the Southern Appalachian Mountains visits each one on a delightful journey of art and nature. Written and illustrated by pen and ink artist Lee James Pantas, this book brings some of the most extraordinary animals in America’s southern mountains to life.
