Only Hutto could write this account

Hutto is a naturalist's naturalist, and a good writer to boot. His several books are accounts of his having spent a good deal more time with the animals he studied, for years sometimes, than with people animals. This account is of his time living just south of the Grand Tetons, in Wyoming, where a herd of mule deer would spend time each year. He opens a door to their world, in an account that I deem literature.
