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. 650 0 Fear in animals.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh99002502 650 7 Fear in animals.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 922053 856 41 |3Table of contents only|uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/ enhancements/fy0829/2008000418-t.html 901 MARCIVE 20231220 935 482454 994 C0|bRID
