Colophon

The animal on the cover of Designing Web Navigation is a margay cat (Leopardus wiedii). Native to Mexico, Panama, Colombia, Peru, and Paraguay, these smallish (9–20 pound) cats live in humid evergreen forests. They love to climb, and can rotate their hind legs 180 degress, which lets them run head-first down trees in a manner similar to squirrels. The margay is also able to hang from branches using only a hind foot.

The large eyes of a margay help them hunt at night; their diet consists of small mammals, birds, and fruit. Their pelts are prized by humans, and hunting, combined with destruction of their natural habitats, has led to their endangerment. Margays can live for up to 20 years, but do not have large litters of kittens and reproduce only once every two years. Once listed as vulnerable to extinction, preservation efforts have have helped to increase the margay population throughout the world. Though they remain on the list of endangered species, the outlook for their survival is positive.

The cover image of Designing Web Navigation is from Wood's Animate Creation. The cover font is Adobe ITC Garamond. The text font is Hoefler Gotham.
