Renowned photographer Thomas D. Mangelsen’s latest project focuses on a celebrated Yellowstone grizzly bear family, which he has been tracking and photographing for ten years. The grizzly bears of Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks are the most famous wild bruins in the world. Millions of people and generations of travelers annually make special pilgrimages to the northern Rockies just to catch sight of these powerful, breathtaking animals. But like a lot of large predator populations on earth, grizzlies in the lower 48 states have struggled for survival. In Grizzly, renowned nature photographer Thomas D. Mangelsen and environmental writer Todd Wilkinson team up to tell the inspiring if sometimes harrowing story of a remarkable bear clan: Mother Grizzly 399 and her generations of offspring. While tracking this charismatic band of bears, Mangelsen has amassed an incomparable photographic portfolio that offers an intimate glimpse into the lives of this celebrated bear family. The rescue of Yellowstone grizzlies ranks as one of the greatest feats of wildlife conservation. WINNER 2016 - Outdoor Writers Association of America - Book of the Year

"Andrews' wonderful Down from the Mountain is deeply informed by personal experience and made all the stronger by his compassion and measured thoughts... Welcome and impressive work." --Barry Lopez Winner of the Banff Mountain Book Competition's Mountain Environment & Natural History Award The story of a grizzly bear named Millie: her life, death, and cubs, and what they reveal about the changing character of the American West The grizzly is one of North America's few remaining large predators. Their range is diminished, but they're spreading across the West again. Descending into valleys where once they were king, bears find the landscape they'd known for eons utterly changed by the new most dominant animal: humans. As the grizzlies approach, the people of the region are wary, at best, of their return. In searing detail, award-winning writer, Montana rancher, and conservationist Bryce Andrews tells us about one such grizzly. Millie is a typical mother: strong, cunning, fiercely protective of her cubs. But raising those cubs--a challenging task in the best of times--becomes ever harder as the mountains change, the climate warms and people crowd the valleys. There are obvious dangers, like poachers, and subtle ones as well, like the corn field that draws her out of the foothills and sets her on a path toward trouble and ruin. That trouble is where Bryce's story intersects with Millie's. It is the heart of Down from the Mountain, a singular drama evoking a much larger one: an entangled, bloody collision between two species in the modern-day West, where the shrinking wilds force man and bear into ever closer proximity.

"The problems caused by a conservation triumph Does the US have too many grizzly bears? The question would have been unimaginable in the early 1970s, when a little over six hundred North American brown bears remained in the lower 48 states and the federal government listed them as "threatened" under the Endangered Species Act. But the population has surged. There are now more than 1700, mostly living in Montana, Idaho, and the Yellowstone and Teton areas of Wyoming. Thanks to this triumph of wildlife conservation, the burgeoning number of grizzlies now collides with the increasingly populated landscape of the 21st century west. While humans and bears have long shared space, today's grizzlies navigate a shrinking amount of wilderness. Cars whiz like bullets through their habitats, tourists check Facebook for pinpoint locations so they can drive out for a quick selfie with a grizzly, and hunters again seek trophy prey. And some people who live in the northern Rockies respond with dread, as they learn to live and work within a potential predator's expanding territory. Montana journalist Robert Chaney chronicles the grizzly bear resurgence, painting rich portraits of the scientists and advocates involved as well as the west's longer history with the bear. He unpacks this success story to scrutinize the issues involved in wildlife management-the tensions between demands on nature and what people are willing to give up to make that happen, and the ways our mind-boggling leaps in technology has outpaced our collective wisdom about how to use that power. Chaney has covered this story for more than two decades, and draws on original interviews with rangers, ranchers, hunters, scientists, environmental advocates, conservation professionals of tribal nations, and bear-watchers from every walk of life. The book is rich with stories about grizzly encounters-mundane, scientific, sublime, terrifying, and sometimes a mix of each.Throughout, Chaney shows how myths of the grizzly bear shape our interactions with them. And how, refracted in that myth, we can also see a story about humans and the tensions between our technological prowess, our hubristic belief in our ability to master the physical environment, and the ever-uncontrollable wonders of the natural world"--
