        Listening to Cougar

        by Marc Bekoff (Editor) , Cara Blessley Lowe (Editor)

        This spellbinding tribute to Puma concolor honours the big cat's presence on the land and in our psyches. In some essays, the puma appears front and centre: a lion leaps over Rick Bass's feet, hurtles off a cliff in front of J Frank Dobie, gazes at Julia Corbett when she opens her eyes after an outdoor meditation, emerges from the fog close enough for poet Gary Gildner to touch. Marc Bekoff opens his car door for a dog that turns out to be a lion. Other works evoke lions indirectly. Biologists describe aspects of cougar ecology, such as its rugged habitat and how males struggle to claim territory. Conservationists relate the political history of America's greatest cat. Short stories and essays consider lions' significance to people, reflecting on accidental encounters, dreams, Navajo beliefs, guided hunts, and how vital mountain lions are to people as symbols of power and wildness.

        Mammals of Colorado

        by David M. Armstrong, James P. Fitzgerald, Carron A. Meaney

        Thoroughly revised and updated, this is a comprehensive reference on the nine orders and 128 species of Colorado's recent native fauna, detailing each species' description, habitat, distribution, population ecology, diet and foraging, predators and parasites, behaviour, reproduction and development, and population status. An introductory chapter on Colorado's environments, a discussion of the development of the fauna over geologic time, and a brief history of human knowledge of Coloradan mammals provide ecological and evolutionary context. The most recent records of the state's diverse species, rich illustrations (including detailed maps, skull drawings, and photographs), and an extensive bibliography make this book a must-have reference. Amateur and professional naturalists, students, vertebrate biologists, and ecologists as well as those involved in conservation and wildlife management in Colorado will find value in this comprehensive volume. Co-published with the Denver Museum of Nature & Science.

        The Rise of Wolf 8

        Witnessing the Triumph of Yellowstone's Underdog

        by Rick McIntyre

        The astonishing true story of one of the first alpha wolves to roam Yellowstone. Yellowstone National Park was once home to an abundance of wild wolves—but park rangers killed the last of their kind in the 1920s. Decades later, the rangers brought them back, with the first wolves arriving from Canada in 1995. This is the incredible true story of one of those wolves. _x000B_Wolf 8 struggles at first—he is smaller than the others, and often bullied—but soon he bonds with an alpha female whose mate was shot. An unusually young alpha male, barely a teenager in human years, Wolf 8 rises to the occasion, hunting skillfully, and even defending his family from the same wolf who killed his father. McIntyre’s epic book provides an intimate look at the inner life of the iconic wolf—and proves they are worthy of our protection. At once heartbreaking and uplifting, The Rise of Wolf 8 marks an original and bold new trilogy to transform our understanding of wolves forever.
