520 | _a"Cristina Eisenberg argues compellingly for the necessity of top predators in large, undisturbed landscapes, and how a continent-long corridor--a "carnivore way"--provides the room they need to roam and the connected landscapes that allow them to disperse. Eisenberg follows the footsteps of six large carnivores--wolves, grizzly bears, lynx, jaguars, wolverines, and cougars--on a 7,500-mile wildlife corridor from Alaska to Mexico, along the Rocky Mountains. Backed by robust science, she shows how their well-being is a critical factor in sustaining healthy landscapes and how it is possible for humans and large carnivores to coexist peacefully and even to thrive."--Dust jacket. | ||
