The Reign of Wolf 21
"A redemption story, an adventure story, and perhaps above all, a love story."--Nate Blakeslee, New York Times-bestselling author of American WolfThe Druid Peak Pack was the most famous wolf pack in Yellowstone National Park, and maybe even in the world.This is the dramatic true story of its remarkable leader, Wolf 21--whose compassion and loyalty challenges commonly held beliefs about alpha males.In this compelling follow-up to the national bestseller The Rise of Wolf 8, Rick McIntyre profiles one of Yellowstone's most revered alpha males, Wolf 21. Leader of the Druid Peak Pack, Wolf 21 was known for his unwavering bravery, his unusual benevolence (unlike other alphas, he never killed defeated rival males), and his fierce commitment to his mate, the formidable Wolf 42.Wolf 21 and Wolf 42 were attracted to each other the moment they met--but Wolf 42's jealous sister interfered viciously in their relationship. After an explosive insurrection within the pack, the two wolves came together at last as leaders of the Druid Peak Pack, which dominated the park for more than 10 years.McIntyre recounts the pack's fascinating saga with compassion and a keen eye for detail, drawing on his many years of experience observing Yellowstone wolves in the wild. His outstanding work of science writing offers unparalleled insight into wolf behavior and Yellowstone's famed wolf reintroduction project. It also offers a love story for the ages."Like Thomas McNamee, David Mech, Barry Lopez, and other literary naturalists with an interest in wolf behavior, McIntyre writes with both elegance and flair, making complex biology and ethology a pleasure to read. Fans of wild wolves will eat this one up."--Kirkus starred review

Rocky Mountain Bison
In Rocky Mountain Bison, wildlife-landscape photographer and nature writer Lochlainn Seabrook has assembled 175 images from his private photo collection of wild American plains bison. Covering the Western states of Montana, Wyoming, and Idaho, he braved the harshest elements and most rugged terrains, as well as bears, cougars, and rattlesnakes, to photographically capture these iconic feral bovines in their natural environment. This required several years, journeying thousands of miles, and hiking through every type of wilderness during all four seasons. The result is an attractive Western-themed animal picture book that allows the reader to study the appearance and habits of these beautiful but dangerous animals from the comfort and safety of his or her own home.If you are a mammalophile, or merely an admirer of the Western U.S., you will enjoy this artistically crafted, visual feast celebrating our country's national mammal: the majestic bison! A volume from Seabrook's American West Nature Series, and specifically designed to beautify any house, office, or commercial location, Rocky Mountain Bison is available in paperback and hardcover from Sea Raven Press and wherever fine books are sold.Award-winning historian Lochlainn Seabrook is the multi-genre author and editor of over 100 books, including the international bestseller The Concise Book of Owls: A Guide to Nature's Most Mysterious Birds (endorsed by the World Bird Sanctuary); as well as When Monsters Ruled: The 25 Scariest Animals of the Prehistoric World, North America's Amazing Mammals: An Encyclopedia for the Whole Family (the first nature guide to include an entry on Sasquatch); Rocky Mountain Equines: A Photographic Collection of Horses, Donkeys, and Mules of the America West; and The Concise Book of Tigers: A Guide to Nature's Most Remarkable Cats.

Crocodiles, Alligators & Lizards
Crocodiles, alligators, caimans, gila monsters - these creatures all have dinosaur ancestries dating from 94 million years ago. There is something elemental and scary about a crocodile, with its tough scaly skin, long powerful tail, conical, peg-like teeth and vicious bite. And these creatures can still be found in every part of the world. Divided by continent, Crocodiles, Alligators & Lizards introduces the American alligator, an apex predator that swims the coasts, estuaries and swamps of southeast USA feeding on fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals; the black caiman, which can grow up to an enormous 6 metres (20ft) in length and prefers the habitat of the slow-moving rivers and lakes of the Amazon basin; the frilled lizard, which spreads its frilly neck when threatened or to impress other lizards; the gila monster, whose two- tone camouflage colouring allows it to easily blend into its desert habitat; and the Komodo dragon, which can run up to 20km/h (13mph) over short distances and has a venomous bite that can paralyze large animals. With detailed captions explaining the origins, habitat and behaviour of these fascinating species, Crocodiles, Alligators & Lizards is a vivid pocket pictorial guide in over 200 brilliant photographs.
