Nature at its exciting best.

The animal species of North America are the survivors of ice ages and centuries of human hunting. Today, they face human encroachment, changing climates and increased pollution. Yet they continue to survive, adapting to each new challenge. North American Wildlife is about their remarkable strategies. Journey into a world where the grizzly bear rules the clearings, the lynx silently stalks the forests, and the rattlesnake slithers through the deserts. Some of the most expansive parkland on earth protects these animals, and provides a dramatic backdrop for this close-up look at life in the wild. Expert nature writer David Jones presents a compelling look at animal behavior.

Prominent North American wildlife photographers have captured over 400 of the most intriguing moments of life in the wild:

* A grizzly digging for razor clams on the shores of the Pacific
* Wolves hunting and nursing their pups high in the Rocky Mountains
* A Florida panther resting in the sun
* Cougars and bobcats hunting and raising their young
* Rabbits, hares, pikas and raccoons foraging for food
* Stellar sea lions sunbathing off the Baja peninsula
* Humpback whales feeding off the coast of Alaska

David Jones studied biology and writing at the University of British Columbia and has written for Photo Life and The Knowledge Network. He lives in Vancouver, British Columbia.
