Open-access reader
Man and mongoose between them have decimated several endemic reptile and mammal species in Jamaica. This paper, the result of a survey early last year, describes the present status of the one land mammal, the hutia, and all the reptiles currently recognised as endangered, and suggests a few more to add to the endangered list.
