http://www.amazon.com/Anatomy-Drawing-School-Animal-Comparative/dp/084160164X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1248883229&sr=8-1

600 pages. The first part deals with human anatomy, but the majority of the book (400 pages or so) actually focuses on animal anatomy, and it's pretty comprehensive as far as I know (I bought it mostly for the human section).

I have this book, it's a great one stop reference library when you need anatomy.
I got it for like 20 bucks at the local bookstore, a total steal.
Downside is it's really large and bulky, so not easy to cary around.

I also reccomend Goldfinger's Book on animal anatomy as well as Fehr's Cyclopedia Anatomicae.
