There are lots of full-color photographs of scientists tagging bears and a thorough study of several bears who live in this area. A few other animals and urban locations are mentioned. In the back of the book, ways to keep bears away from your property, how to behave if you encounter a bear, web resources, glossary and other notes and bibliography. Unless your child is REALLY into conservation, this may be a better book for teens or adults. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

"North Carolina's black bears were once a threatened species, but now their numbers are rising in and around Asheville. But what happens when conservation efforts for a species are so successful that there's a boom in the population? Can humans and bears live compatibly? What are the long-term effects for the bears? Author Amy Cherrix follows the scientists who, in cooperation with local citizen scientists, are trying to answer to these questions and more. Part field science, part conservation science, Backyard Bears looks at black bears--and other animals around the globe--who are rapidly becoming our neighbors in urban and suburban areas."-- Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
