5.0 out of 5 stars
A nice book about a beautiful animal, April 27, 2000
This review is from: Cougar: Ghost of the Rockies (Paperback)
The cover photograph was only the first of many outstanding pictures in this book. The photographs are by Jim Dutcher, who provided most of the source material for the book. Most of the text was written by Karen McCall, rich with description almost to the point of being a distraction at times, but there are a few parts where there is a noticeable shift in style, and I suspect these were written by Dutcher himself. We get the story of Catrina as she raises three cubs in an enclosure in a secluded area, to be eventually released into the wild (Catrina herself is too acclimated to humans to be released). Their story is interesting and compelling. The book is worth having for the pictures alone, but you'll be missing out if you don't read the text too.
