Not me, but it sounds pretty good, the gene is nature. This is the description of the book:
Since the beginning of human history, bears have been regarded as animals of great power. Ethnobotanist and cultural anthropologist Wolf Storl, who spent years in the wilderness with bears, explores the fascinating relationship between bears and humans, including the history, mythology, healing lore, and biology of this formidable creature. Storl takes the reader from the bear caves of the Neanderthals to the bear-worshipping Siberian tribes of today, from the extinct cave bear to the modern teddy bear. Bears were traditionally seen as a kind of "forest human" under whose shaggy fur a king or a god was hidden, he explains. Vividly illustrating the power of myths and fairy tales to reveal more than scientific treatises about the true nature of beings--especially in the case of bears--Storl restores this magnificent animal to its rightful place at the forefront of the human imagination as well as among the dwellers of the forest.

Does anyone know what happened to Verdugo? He hasn't posted here since last January. Is he actively posting somewhere else?
Always enjoyed reading his posts, a very knowledgeable fella. Wish he would stop back in from time to time.

He posted a few weeks ago on Carnivora but then wasn't seen again; I guess he/she is pretty busy. His posts are very well researched and written.

Verdugo is definitely an elite poster. He especially knows about animal morphology. Posters like that are very rare and scientific minded and usually dont post much, like Peter for example.

I kidded him one time about him not being just a casual enthusiast due to his well-written informative posts. He assured me he was just a hobbyist although a dedicated hobbyist and much of his information is from years of research that he's collected.

I just sent him a message via e-mail letting him know that he is missed.

Melbourne is getting from bad to worst. The world is. Yeah...while the animals in America are thinking this. "HA! Who's laughing now!? We may not be at the top of the food chain but at least we aren't in quarantine!"

Nice place. Is this someone's home? Love the wrap around porch and fire pit area.
