Summary: Good Book, Not Must Have
Comment: We seem to be increasing our volumes of "bear journalism" at a rapid pace but I'm not sure we ever needed to go beyond Peacock's "Grizzly Years." I find the author and his cohorts well-intentioned, but do we really need to know everything there is to know about the grizzly? Do we need to radio-collar them and track them and tag them and pursue them and give them cutesy, anthropomorphic names? Why can't we just accept their mystical and awesome presence and perhaps spend a bit less time and energy destroying their habitat?

Summary: true grizz
Comment: Overall, a good book. Chronicles the day-to-day happenings of a team of biologists that scare/chase bears away from the homes of individuals residing near the Whitefish Mountain Range in Montana. A little bit too much on the politics though!
Rating: 5
Summary: Fantastic!!
Comment: Chadwick has penned a fascinating look at an animal whose reputation has long been based more on fear than fact. This marvelous natural history writer has found a way to bring readers close enough to touch a Grizzly bear, while maintaining a safe distance of respectful awe. His up-close-and personal stories of bears and bear managers are emminently readable and give one pause for thought about how misrepresented these incredible bears -- named Ursus arctos horribilis -- have become. Chadwick writes with trained scientific insight as well as the kindness of a human being who doesn't feel that man's place on this planet is that of "The Terminator" for all species who might stand in the way of real estate development. A definite "must-read" for all people living in or near Grizz habitat, and for all admirers of the magnificent megafauna known as the Grizzly bear.
