Edward Savage has spent fifteen years watching bears across some of the country's most remote terrain—and for many of the bears in this book, that relationship spans over a decade. Some he first encountered as six-month-old cubs; they are now adults with cubs of their own. That depth of observation is evident on every page: how grizzly mothers raise and wean their young, what dangers imperil black bears, and how polar bears locate each other across the sea ice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSavage ponders the contradictory relationship humans have with bears: Why do we consider these animals dangerous and aggressive in the wilderness, yet welcome these furry symbols as snuggly toys and protagonists of movies? These photographs and reflections explore the many traits of bears that we as humans value and connect with, from the profound mother-cub bonds to the strength and calm they exude in daily life. Savage invites readers to see these animals as he does—as individuals, long-lived and respect-worthy, that grow, learn and thrive in the wilds of Canada.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e  \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eDetails \u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHarbour Publishing\u003cbr\u003eISBN: 9781998526871\u003cbr\u003eHardback\u003cbr\u003e11.5 in x 9 in - 138 pp\u003cbr\u003ePublication Date: 24\/11\/2026\u003cbr\u003eBISAC Subject(s): NATURE \/ Animals \/ Bears,PHOTOGRAPHY \/ Subjects \u0026amp; Themes \/ Plants \u0026amp; Animals,NATURE \/ Regional \/ Canada \/ General \u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"Harbour Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":47664688660738,"sku":"9781998526871","price":49.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0293\/1615\/3443\/files\/Placeholdercoverblankwhite_ef7a3e23-30be-4aa4-bba1-d1c7990ffb0b.png?v=1776334338","url":"https:\/\/harbourpublishing.com\/products\/9781998526871","provider":"Harbour Publishing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
