The World
of Animals

A wall map of the fauna on all continents - for childen and adults

The world of animals is incredibly diverse, it is fascinating and astonishing for the young and old - and now it is available for every kid's room, or living room.

For the first time “the World of Animals” shows Dieter Braun's famous animal illustrations together with new drawings on one poster. Almost 100 animals populate this beautiful world map. From the polar bear on Greenland to the penguins in Antarctica. Familiar animals as the fox, the wild boar, or the stork in Europe, famous animals as the zebra, the gorilla, or the lion in Africa, exotic animals as the colorful parrots in the South American jungle, the tiger, and the giant panda in Asia, or the kangaroo in Australia, the mighty inhabitans of the oceans as the orca, the walrus, or the elephant seal, or less known animals as the ring-tailed lemur on Madagascar, or the Japanese macaque. These and many more animals are only waiting to be discovered by children and their parents.
The world map shows the different climate zones, the topography, like the Andes or the Himalayas, the vegetation of the different countries, and important landmarks, as the Fuji, the Pyramids, or Angkor Wat. Thus children and parents can get to know the different animals and explore their habitats.
All animals, the landscapes, continents, and oceans were illustrated with love in Dieter Braun's distinctive style. “The World of Animals” is great fun for small and grown-up explorers and raises the interest for close and far areas around the globe.
