Description
Fuzz: A Curious Investigation into Human-Wildlife Conflict
Join Mary Roach, America's funniest science writer, as she explores the unpredictable world where wildlife and humans meet. In this fascinating investigation, Roach delves into the science behind human-wildlife conflict, a discipline at the crossroads of human behavior and wildlife biology.
Roach tags along with experts in animal-attack forensics, human-elephant conflict specialists, bear managers, and "danger tree" faller blasters. From leopard-terrorized hamlets to St. Peter's Square, she encounters a range of unusual situations that challenge our understanding of the natural world.
