The production management thanks the many people who contributed to this book. These include Mr Albert Steinberger, our field guide (and wannabe mystery novelist), his expert colleagues, and those behind-the-scenes people, the luggage carriers, the catering crew, and the on-location safari team. I wish to acknowledge the work of the editorial team, our [excellent] typist, Mrs Dorothy Steinberger, and Mr Max Bradfield, our student graphics designer who seemed to think this is a comedy book. The success of this volume has given us high hopes for a movie-length documentary film. Thanks to God for being a good sport (as we say in Australia) in allowing us to achieve our quest.
