Description

An innocent act of kindness turns a bear into a dangerous marauder and when she is killed she leaves her three cubs with out a mother. Stephen Stringham and his new bride made up our minds to raise these three orphan cubs in the Alaska wilderness. Together, they taught Ontak, Chrislee, and Jonjoanak about which plants they could eat and how one can fish and hunt. Dr. Stringham’s extensive scientific background made him an excellent teacher of the foraging skills and the social skills they would wish to live in a bear’s world. In the process of teaching them, Stringham learns from the cubs how bears express fear, anger, and how one can appease defensive bears and intimidate the aggressive ones.

He and his wife would develop agree with and respect through their affection and play, helping to heal the cubs’ emotional wounds and decrease their aggression and violence. As the Springhams’ bond with their furry charges deepens, they realize that this can be a connection that may be all too uncommon between people and animals. When Dr. Stringham is told by the Department of Fish and Game to destroy the bears, the depth of that bond would be tested. Beauty throughout the Beast is a heartwarming true story of how people and animals can find common ground and live in harmony on the planet.
