Contents: Publisher's Note:

Benjamin Kilham is a wildlife rehabilitator in New Hampshire who has worked with several bear cubs over a six-year period, helping to raise orphans and observing them closely as he did so. His comments on the bears' behavior--their food-finding techniques, bonding, noises, and even altruism--always tempered with his awareness of the dangers of working with them, bring these fascinating creatures to life. Includes many color photographs of the bears in Kilham's life. A riveting first-person account follows the author, a renowned naturalist who resides in the woodlands of New Hampshire, as he raises a pair of orphaned wild black bears, discovering unique and unknown aspects of bear behavior that have profoundly impacted our understanding of animal behavior.
