Summary "WILD LIFE IN NEW ZEALAND. Part I. Mammalia" by G. M. Thomson is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work provides an overview of the diverse mammalian life found in New Zealand, discussing both indigenous species and those introduced by humans. The book aims to enhance knowledge of the country's fauna, emphasizing the importance of observing and understanding nature. The opening of the book sets the stage for its exploration of New Zealand's wildlife, urging the importance of natural history education among children. Thomson begins by detailing the historical context of both native and introduced species in New Zealand, noting that many animals common in daily life were brought over by immigrants. Through personal observations, he reflects on the distinction between native species and those introduced, thereby highlighting the complexity of the country's ecological landscape. The chapter establishes the intention behind the manuscript: to provide detailed sketches of common animals and to foster a greater appreciation and understanding of nature among readers.
