Bears (Wildlife) Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
Bears combines the work of some of North America's leading wildlife photographers with the writing of Daniel Wood, a leading nature writer. This celebration of the bears of North America covers black bears, brown bears, and polar bears. Through photographs, text, and extended captions, the earth's largest terrestrial carnivore is revealed in intimate detail. Wood explores social interaction, hunting and hibernation patterns, mothering behaviour, and the consequences of human contact with these magnificent creatures. He also follows a year in the life of a bear and, in the process, dispels many common myths about this misunderstood animal. Catch a glimpse of migrating polar bears hunting and frolicking in Churchill, Manitoba, as they wait for Hudson Bay to freeze. Follow the black bear as it scrounges for salmon, insects, berries, and garbage. Discover why the grizzly bear can strike terror in the hearts of hikers and campers. Bears enters the wild domain of this fascinating animal and presents an in-depth portrait of it at work, rest and play.

ANOTHER GREAT BOOK TO HAVE IN YOUR BEAR COLLECTION. MY NEW USED BOOK WAS VERY CHEAP TO BUY, IT WAS DELIVERED QUICKLY AND FROM THE OUTER COVER TO INSIDE, THE BOOK WAS IN GREAT SHAPE. LOTS OF PHOTOS OF VARIOUS SIZES TO ENJOY WITH GOOD COMMON SENSE TEXT TO READ. IF YOU CAN BUT THESE BOOKS FOR CHEAP, BY ALL MEANS, BUY SOME!
I choose this book because it went great with our bear unit. It has great detail and the kids loved it. First grade.
A lot of color photos of cute bears in various poses and situations, some of them absurd, most of them regular. Features black, brown and polar bears. Good for your coffee table. Just don't drink coffee on a table in bear country…
Gift for father in law and he seemed to like it and it fit well in his "bear" themed room.
Great pictures and great information.
