Life on the Rocks: A Portrait of the American Mountain Goat

Bruce L. Smith
4.9/5 (10549 ratings)
Description:The American mountain goat is one of the most elusive and least familiar species of hoofed mammals in North America. In their remote realm of cliffs and crags, few people have glimpsed these extraordinary mountaineers up close. Through the eyes and lens of field biologist and photographer Bruce Smith, Life on the Rocks offers an intimate portrayal of this remarkable animal across the Rocky, Cascade, and Coast mountain ranges of the United States and Canada. Smith's stunning color photographs and personal experiences living in Montana's Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness Area accompany descriptions of the American mountain goat's natural history. Their physical and behavioral adaptations enable these alpine athletes to survive a host of dangers, including six-month-long winters, scarce food sources, thunderous avalanches, social strife, and predators like wolves, bears, lions, wolverines, and eagles. Smith also details the challenges mountain goats face as their territory is threatened by expanding motorized access, industrial activities, and a warming climate.Life on the Rocks showcases the elegance and charm of this little-known creature, thriving in some of North America's harshest wilderness. Smith's volume will appeal to wildlife enthusiasts, wildland travelers, and conservationists interested in the future of the American mountain goat. Winner of two National Outdoor Book Awards in the Nature & Environmental Writing and Design & Artistic Merit categories.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
