About the Book :

It gives us great pleasure to present this book “Practical Zoology” for the students of First Year B.Sc. Zoology, Savitribai Phule Pune University. This book is written according to the new CBCS syllabus of June 2019.

We have tried our best to present the subject matter in an easy style and in a comprehensive manner. The subject matter is profusely illustrated with a number of clear and labelled diagrams. We sincerely feel that this book will fulfill the requirements of the students as well as teachers. While preparing this book several standard reference books and text books have been consulted. Emphasis has been laid on furnishing maximum information required for students in a simple and lucid language. Zoology is an interesting subject because the animal world is full of diversity, adaptations, habits and habitats and behaviour. There are several textbooks and reference books available written by Indian and foreign authors but these books are too costly and majority of the students are unable to purchase them for comprehensive study.
