Together they spy an owl overhead, look deep into the frozen face of the lake, and contemplate the fish sleeping below the surface. Then it's time to say goodbye: for Bear to go home and hibernate with the family and for Wolf to run with the pack. Daniel Salmieri's debut as author/illustrator is a beautifully rendered story of friendship and the subtle rhythm of life when we are open to the world and to each other.

Book Synopsis A Libertarian Walks Into a Bear by : Matthew Hongoltz-Hetling
Download or read book A Libertarian Walks Into a Bear written by Matthew Hongoltz-Hetling. This book was released on 2020-09-15. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A tiny American town's plans for radical self-government overlooked one hairy detail: no one told the bears. Once upon a time, a group of libertarians got together and hatched the Free Town Project, a plan to take over an American town and completely eliminate its government. In 2004, they set their sights on Grafton, NH, a barely populated settlement with one paved road. When they descended on Grafton, public funding for pretty much everything shrank: the fire department, the library, the schoolhouse. State and federal laws became meek suggestions, scarcely heard in the town's thick wilderness. The anything-goes atmosphere soon caught the attention of Grafton's neighbors: the bears. Freedom-loving citizens ignored hunting laws and regulations on food disposal. They built a tent city in an effort to get off the grid. The bears smelled food and opportunity. A Libertarian Walks Into a Bear is the sometimes funny, sometimes terrifying tale of what happens when a government disappears into the woods. Complete with gunplay, adventure, and backstabbing politicians, this is the ultimate story of a quintessential American experiment -- to live free or die, perhaps from a bear.

Book Synopsis One of Us by : Barrie K Gilbert
Download or read book One of Us written by Barrie K Gilbert. This book was released on 2019-09-03. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Barrie Gilbert’s fascination with grizzly bears almost got him killed in Yellowstone National Park. He recovered, returned to fieldwork and devoted the next several decades to understanding and protecting these often-maligned giants. He has spent thousands of hours among wild grizzles in Yosemite and Yellowstone national parks, Alberta, coastal British Columbia, and along Brooks River in Alaska’s Katmai National Park, where hundreds of people gather to watch dozens of grizzlies feast on salmon. His research has centered on how bears respond to people and each other, with a focus on how to keep humans and bears safe. Drawn from his decades of experience, One of Us: A Biologist’s Walk Among Bears explodes myths that depict grizzlies as bloodthirsty beasts that “kill for pleasure” and reveals the intelligent, adaptable side of these astonishingly social animals. He also explains their pivotal role in maintaining and protecting their fragile ecosystems. Accordingly, Gilbert pulls no punches when outlining threats to bear conservation. Most importantly, this book extolls a new way of appreciating grizzly bears, the same way we regard wolves, whales, chimpanzees, and gorillas.

Book Synopsis Walking with Bears by : Will Taegel
Download or read book Walking with Bears written by Will Taegel. This book was released on 2017-11-07. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earth is in the midst of a shuddering, a crisis. Since all of us are a part of Earth, we are part of that upheaval. We feel it personally and collectively. In this groundbreaking book, Will Taegel, Ph.D., takes us to the confluence of modern science and ancient wisdom as resources for walking across the bridge from where we are to where we are going. In this exciting page-turner, he takes us to the bridge and walks us across, individually and as a community, through a shamanic storytelling filled with information. It is a story about transcending our wounds. It is a story about skills you can learn to cross over into a new dimension of living. It is a story about two flawed persons who find each other, enter conflict, and emerge as cherished relatives. It is your story. The bears we walk with rumble across our interiors. The bears we walk with are the tumult of climate change, nuclear threat, traumatic distress, political chaos, and prophetic hope. That hope resides in a profound sense of love through intimacy within the flow of Nature and each other.
