Grizzly Seasons: Life with the Brown Bears of Kamchatka

Grizzly Seasons: Life with the Brown Bears of Kamchatka by Russell, Charlie. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781552978566.

A photographic journey that redefines perceptions of bears. Charlie Russell and Maureen Enns spent six summers in the remote wilderness of Kamchatka, Russia: home to the worlds densest population of brown bears. Grizzly Seasons tells the story of three bear cubs -- Chico, Biscuit and Rosie -- rescued from a zoo and reintroduced to the wild by Russell and Enns. The account traces the bears development from dependant cubs to independent creatures of the wilderness. Graced with more than 150 beautiful color photographs, including majestic aerial views, Grizzly Seasons closely follows the bears -- and the authors -- through six years of developing a self-sustaining, mutually-respectful relationship of trust.
