Overview

Twelve true stories of grizzly bear attacks spanning two centuries and six countries. From Hugh Glass crawling 200 miles after being left for dead in 1823, to a cyclist colliding with a bear at thirty kilometers per hour in Banff in 2014-each chapter explores a documented encounter between humans and one of nature's most powerful predators. Some survived. Some did not. All of them faced a moment where their decisions-and their knowledge of what to do-determined the outcome. MAULED is not a sensational account of attacks. It is a rigorous examination of the specific conditions, choices, and circumstances that separate survival from tragedy. Each chapter includes survival lessons drawn from scientific research into bear behavior and the decisions that change outcomes. For anyone who hikes, camps, or travels in wilderness. For anyone curious about the intersection of human activity and untamed nature. For anyone who wants to understand what actually happens when a person comes face-to-face with a grizzly bear.
