For decades, Kilham has studied wild black bears in a vast tract of Northern New Hampshire woodlands. At times, he has also taken in orphaned infants--feeding them, walking them through the forest for months to help them decipher their natural world, and eventually reintroducing them back into the wild. Once free, the orphaned bears still regard him as their mother. And one of these bears, now a 17-year-old female, has given him extraordinary access to her daily life, opening a rare window into how she and the wild bears she lives among carry out their daily lives, raise their young, and communicate. Out on a Limb delivers Kilham's fascinating glimpse at the inner world of bears, and also makes a passionate case for science, and education in general, to open its doors to different ways of learning and researching--doors that could lead to far broader realms of discovery." -- Publisher website. 650 0 $a Black bear $x Behavior $v Anecdotes. 941 $a 4 952 $l PQAX094 $d 20231214013543.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006074243.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160826083120.0 952 $l PRAX771 $d 20140103011205.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C64D7010744411E3B32AB1E9DAD10320 994 $a Z0 $b IODInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
