Ahead of the first trip, I wasn’t thinking much about mammals, and yet, you cannot miss them, from Nilgais near villages to Indian Flying Foxes in town centres, not to mention those ubiquitous and irresistibly cute Palm Squirrels eating seeds left for parakeets. I clearly needed a mammal book.

I love spiders, I've owned many snakes as pets, my favorite mammal is arguably the Opposum (I think they're so cute, whereas here in the south people hate them and dont understand their importance), bats, frogs, all animals really. I even have a greater affinity for the creepy-crawly types.

Initially, I wasn’t that excited about seeing mammals. The Big Five–lion, leopard, African buffalo, elephant, and rhinoceros–are impressive, but my heart lies with the patterned mammals, giraffes and zebras. We also got great views of a very small mammal, Wahlberg’s Epauletted Fruit Bat, at Satara.

It brings mammals, and frogs in profusion, and reptiles, and insects. Best of all the lodge also set out a large white board with lights on, which attracted lots of insects and in turn bats. This can also be a curse, as I have spent many nights wandering around seeing precisely nothing. Or nothing big at least. So many insects.

The forest grows on the new lakeshore and it, too, is a mere 15 years old, but already provides an important corridor for large mammals such as Roe Deer and even Brown Bears , which sometimes come down to feed on beans.

Primates are exceptional among the mammals, living amphibians (which represent only a small part of the original amphibian family tree) are pretty noisy too. So, probably, there were things we would have to call birds that were less like modern birds in how they flew than are modern bats. Fish are mostly silent on the matter.
