SuperGuide: Bears

by Kevin Van Tighem

tagged: bears, wildlife
Description

Informative and visually exciting, this book is your complete guide to bears. Kevin Van Tighem draws from his considerable firsthand experience with bears to describe their habitat, family life and behaviour, as well as the way they are perceived in human culture and the ecological forces that make this great species' survival ever more precarious. This is a comprehensive picture of bears of all kinds, promoting a deeper understanding of these powerful yet vulnerable creatures.
