review 1: I love personal experience stories like this. I like nature, but I don't want to get any on me, so it was fun to read about hikes in the backwoods and crazy bear incidents without having to get too close. There's a great section in the back about what to do if you encounter a black bear in the wild and there is a lot of evidence in here that feeding bears is just plain cruel. Unfortunately I think some people are just too dim to ever get it, but I appreciate the effort.
review 2: I highly recommend this book! It is a great book to read out loud to others because it is easy to follow along, keeps your attention, and is broken up into many different short stories. This book is funny, tender hearted, and educational. There are many people who do not understand the
... more importance of not feeding wildlife. This book provides many reasons without being offensive. It is enjoyed by most ages and you won't want it to end. less

Short and simple. I wish I would have read this before my bear encounters on Mt. Mitchell.

I would love a bear-free week in GSMNP.
