Critical reception
"Buck describes the animals in their native haunts, the capture of some of them, their characteristics, and their reactions in captivity...filled with adventure and odd bits of animal lore." Booklist 36:170 Jan 1, 1940 "The vast legion of Frank Buck's followers will find Animals Are Like That thoroughly enjoyable and instructive reading. When the author doesn't know the answer to some more intangible animal trait he frankly admits his deficiency; but this happens infrequently. Mr. Buck has selected a large number of excellent illustrations..." Springfield Republican p10 Nov 29, 1939 "A fascinating study of animal traits." The Montreal Gazette - Dec 9, 1939 ==References==
