Description
Due to the intense curiosity of one groundbreaking deer, and the resulting introduction to a complete herd, Joe Hutto has been allowed unprecedented get admission to and insight into the minds and behavior of this special animal. Spending on a daily basis embedded a few of the herd, he develops an uncanny connection with the deer, witnessing individual and group dynamics never before observed and recorded, unveiling just how much we have in common with these delicate beings.
Each season brings joy as fawns are born, and heartache as hunters, predators, development, and a pollution all take their toll. The mule deer of the West are in trouble, and Hutto is their most fervent advocate. Touching the Wild is proof that we have got such a lot to be informed from wild animals about their world, ourselves, and the fragile planet we share. Full color photos right through.
