Summary
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.
