GREAT MAMMALS features 35 animals - the heaviest and tallest land and sea animals, plus mammals that are the largest of their kind. Organized by size, it ranges from the blue whale, the largest animal in the world to the flying fox, a bat that's as large as an eagle. These animal giants live all over the world in varying habitats. Many can be seen in zoos, and, sadly, about half are endangered.
