A most read for grizzly lovers

If you are interested in learning about what is going on in the area of grizzly management and habitat preservation, then this is a book for you. It is educational and mind opening to the plight of this great bear. The authors talks with all types of people involved with grizzles from environmentalist, researchers, ranchers and loggers. It kept me drawn in till the end and then I was sad there was not more. I read it in a day and think it is one of the best books in my large bear book collection.

With diverse ways to save the majestic great bear

Where The Grizzly Walks: The Future Of The Great Bear by Bill Schneider is a straightforward presentation of the grizzly bear species and the tremendous negative impact humanity has had on it. In the 1970s, the lower 48 states had a scant 1000 grizzly bears living in just 2 percent of their former range. Today the grizzly populations strain the limited carrying capacity of their wilderness home compelling them to expand their activities into nontraditional habitats. Diverse ways to save the majestic great bear from the ruthless throttle of civilization are the prime focus of this involving and strongly recommended study.
