Bear Attacks: Their Causes and Avoidance, New Revised Edition |
| What causes bear attacks?
When should you play dead and when should you fight an attacking bear? What do
we know about black and grizzly bears and how can this knowledge be used to
avoid bear attacks? And, more generally, what is the bear’s
future? Of all the animals in North America, none commands as much respect, interest, awe and fear as the bear. Endowed by nature with incredible size, speed, intelligence, and power, bears in the twenty-first century now compete for survival with the only other animals to threaten their existence: Humans. |

Bear Attacks, first published in 1985, now in a thoroughly revised and updated edition, is the authoritative and unflinching study of the attacks made on humans by the mighty grizzly and the less aggressive, but sometimes deadly, black bear. Written by the world's leading scientific expert in the field, this Canadian classic is required reading for everyone who hikes, camps, or visits bear country – and for anyone who wants to know more about these sometimes fearsome but always fascinating wild creatures. Written by Stephen Herrero. Published by McClelland & Stewart Ltd., 2003. |
