Bears combines the work of some of North America's leading wildlife photographers with the writing of Daniel Wood, a leading nature writer. This celebration of the bears of North America covers black bears, brown bears, and polar bears. Through photographs, text, and extended captions, the earth's largest terrestrial carnivore is revealed in intimate detail. Wood explores social interaction, hunting and hibernation patterns, mothering behaviour, and the consequences of human contact with these magnificent creatures. He also follows a year in the life of a bear and, in the process, dispels many common myths about this misunderstood animal. Catch a glimpse of migrating polar bears hunting and frolicking in Churchill, Manitoba, as they wait for Hudson Bay to freeze. Follow the black bear as it scrounges for salmon, insects, berries, and garbage. Discover why the grizzly bear can strike terror in the hearts of hikers and campers. Bears enters the wild domain of this fascinating animal and presents an in-depth portrait of it at work, rest and play.

Most of them differ from one another in several ways – whether it’s their anatomy (size, color, etc.), diets, habitats or just their general locations. This book includes all of the eight species of Bears: Giant Panda, Polar Bear, Brown Bear (like Grizzlies), Black Bear, Sloth Bear, Andean Bear (also known as Spectacled Bear), Asiatic or Asian Bear (also known as the Moon Bear) and Sun Bear.Also included are a bunch of BONUS pictures at the end just for fun, as well as a Resources page if you’d like to find out more about a particular type of Bear, and a Dictionary for those words you may not be familiar with.The book is not a be-all and end-all encyclopedia on each type of Bear. The hope is to give you some good groundwork on these often magnificent, sometimes dangerous, but always fascinating Bears.
