Opis

Alaska is truly bear country. It is the only one of America s fifty states to be inhabited by all three of North America s ursine species: black, polar bear, and brown bear (also known as grizzly). Alaska s Bears is a handy guidebook to the bears of Alaska, a book that slips easily into a jacket pocket or a day pack, and that provides entertaining armchair reading when you re not in bear country. Here in one compact edition is a book that can help you understand Alaska s bears and their natural histories. Learn about their appearances, behaviors, yearly cycles, ecological niches, and relationships with humans. Find full details on how to visit Alaska s prime bear-viewing and get tips for traveling safely through bear country. Complementing Bill Sherwonit s text are photographs from longtime Alaskan Tom Walker, a premier wildlife photographer who has spent hundreds of hours in the company of bears."
