The A to Z list

Animals that start with M

M collects some of the most widely misunderstood animals in the library. The mongoose is not immune to snake venom, only partially resistant to it, and the moth is not drawn to light but disoriented by it, having lost track of which way is up. The macaw, the manatee, the mandrill, the minke whale and the myna bird fill out a varied page.

8 animals in the library start with M, from the macaw to the myna bird. Most of them live in Africa and North America.
