Paul Nicklen, flora and fauna photojournalist, showcases his stunning photography for National Geographic with this selection of North American bears: the grizzly, polar bear, black bear and the rarest spirit bear. Evocative storytelling combines with Nicklen’s landmark photographs to reveal the truths and myths about these amazing creatures, and sheds light on their threatened ecosystems. Years of photographing bears in their habitat have given Nicklen a special understanding of these majestic mammals: the polar bear, ranked hottest species on Earth; the grizzly, feared and misunderstood; and the black bear, in addition to its precious white counterpart, the spirit bear. Nicklen believes that sharing knowledge and stories about bears will have an effect on the way we recall to mind them, and thus ensure their future. Well-known environmentalists such as Wade Davis, Sylvia Earle, Werner Herzog, and Nicklen himself give a contribution essays to beef up the message of Nicklen’s photographs. Quotes from literary figures punctuate the pages, offering insight into the magnificence of these impressive mammals. An epilogue takes a global take a look at the way forward for bears.
