I enjoyed reading the 'Great Bear of Almanac' especially the part where the polar bear attacked a bowhead whale despite failing to kill it. This is why I respect bears because they are bold and brave. It seems a hungry polar bear will attack anything including woolly mammoths since it attacked a much larger bowhead whale, however, ONLY my FICTIONAL blue ice bear can kill a bull mammoth and rhino, something no bear on earth can do .

Thanks. Btw I have read the Great Bear of Almanac many years ago. It will be good if you post some of the pages on this forum. It brings back nostalgia. I will check out the book on birds shortly.

THIS is my next book: Across the Ussuri Kray: Travels in the Sikhote-Alin Mountains In Russia’s Far East sits the wild Ussuri Kray, a region known for its remote highlands and rugged mountain passes where tigers and bears roam the cliffs, and salmon and lenok navigate the rivers. In this collection of travel writing by famed Russian explorer and naturalist Vladimir K. Arsenyev (1872-1930), readers are shuttled back to the turn of the 20th century when the Russian Empire was reeling from its defeat in the Russo-Japanese War (1904-1905) and vulnerable to its Far Eastern neighbors. What began as an expedition to survey the region’s infrastructure for the Russian military turned into an adventure through a territory rich in ethnic and ecological diversity. Encountering the disappearing indigenous cultures of the Nanai and Udege, engaging the help of Korean farmers and Chinese hunters, and witnessing the beginning of indomitable Russian settlement, Arsenyev documents the lives and customs of the region’s inhabitants and their surroundings. Originally written as "a popular scientific description of the Kray," this unabridged edition includes photographs largely unseen for nearly a century and is annotated by Jonathan C. Slaght, a biologist working in the same forests Arsenyev explored. Across the Ussuri Kray is a classic of northeast Asian cultural and natural history. ( IMHO )- If you read a book, even if it takes you a month to complete, if you learn just one single interesting fact - the reading was well worth the time spent.

rewilding.org/the-wisdom-of-bears-and-the-perfidy-of-bureaucracy/?fbclid=IwAR1HcKQQEINC2_brn901nC8MOLxzBNH4ScHEHK2ZwjpXGRPwn1GyQdFNWC4 Gilbert long ago concluded that NPS administrators needed strong public support if they were to fulfill their Organic Act conservation mandate, even where doing so required making politically incorrect decisions. In an effort to counter pressures from businesses and user groups unconcerned about long-term ecosystem sustainability, Gilbert has allied himself with fellow biologists (e.g., Rachel Mazur, David Mattson and Brian Horejsi), as well as activists such as Louisa Willcox and Doug Peacock who make sure that valid scientific findings are not tucked under the rug, obscured by pseudoscience, or ignored. For this, he has paid a very heavy price, both personally and professionally. Despite being mauled by bureaucrats even more severely than by a grizzly bear, Gilbert has never been beaten, never bowed, never surrendered, never broken. His life and work will hopefully inspire a new generation of eco-activists and conservation biologists.

Brobear, did you order this book already? "Across the Ussuri Krai"
domainofthebears.proboards.com/post/22500/thread
I will order it today. I got a feeling there could be some interesting things. This is what we need, very rare books of hunters in the RFE.
