I have most of these books in my personal library, but many of the books are available at public libraries. I have obtained copies of reports on grizzly bear recovery and management from the following:
| Grizzly Bear Recovery Coordinator U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service Main Hall, University of Montana Missoula, Montana 59812 (406) 243-4903 |
Interagency Grizzly Bear Study Team Forestry Sciences Lab Montana State University Bozeman, MT 59717 (406) 994-5043 |
Books On Grizzly Bears
Selections with * are highly recommended--not that most
of the others aren't also worth reading. Two ** are selected for good presentation
on particular area related to grizzlies.
A couple of recent ones worth checking out:
