Loved this book about the eight bear species on earth. It was a slow read but a fascinating, albeit sad book.

Read this book to try to understand bears and my fear of bears a little bit more. It was interesting to learn of the eight different bears and fun to follow along the author as they visited different parks and continents. Would’ve been good to include a bit of Indigenous perspective on more of the bears.

The book being from the perspective and writing style of a journalist really degraded my enjoyment. Its also definitely more travel book than informative non-fiction. However, just as a popsci genre read, its actually pretty nice.
