520    Can naive animals avoid extinction when they encounter 
       reintroduced carnivores? To what extent is fear culturally
       transmitted? And how can a better understanding of current
       predator-prey behavior help demystify past extinctions and
       inform future conservation? The Better to Eat You With is 
       the chronicle of Berger's search for answers. From 
       Yellowstone's elk and wolves to rhinos living with African
       lions and moose coexisting with tigers and bears in Asia, 
       Berger tracks cultures of fear in animals across 
       continents and climates, engaging readers with a 
       stimulating combination of natural history, personal 
       experience, and conservation.
