Aprašymas

True story. Fish are getting smarter. Without hands and while underwater, they can untie knots-much to the dismay of those attempting to catch them. This eye-opening event and many others are commonplace in the Olympic Peninsula, a land once believed to have inexhaustible fisheries and timber. Pat Neal, has relied on his experience as a historian and guide on the rainforest rivers of the Olympic Peninsula, to write weekly wilderness gossip columns since 1998 that trace the history of and stories gathered from this beautiful location and its transformation over the years. In a collection of fifty-two columns taken from the Opinion Page of the Peninsula Daily News and Aberdeen The Daily World, he provides a fascinating, sometimes amusing, glimpse into life on the Peninsula that includes the story of three elk hunters who learned a valuable lesson about wilderness survival, a standoff between a bear and a tourist, and all the reasons why it's never too late to panic when encountering challenges in the wilderness. Wildlife is a collection of entertaining columns about the history, people, and legends of the Olympic Peninsula.
