(3) 4-6 This is a scientific detective story, recounting how Kristofer Helgen recognized that a separate species of mammal--oliguitos--had been mistakenly identified as olingos for many years. Journeying to the cloud forests of Ecuador, Helgen was able to locate and observe living specimens. Markle's engaging book is as informative about olinguitos as it is about the thinking, research, and methodology of real scientists. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind.
