Do you love Yosemite and the bears that live there?
In Speaking of Bears, author Rachel Mazur draws on interviews with more than 100 individuals to tell the history of how Yosemite, Sequoia, and Kings Canyon National Parks created a human-bear problem so bad that there were eventually over 2,000 incidents in a single year. She then describes the pivotal moments during which park employees used trial and error, conducted research, invented devices, collaborated with other parks, and found funding to get it under control.
