Many of the anecdotes are lighthearted—a few turns of phrase brought to mind Patrick McManus. There are some sad, cautionary stories too, in which DeLozier emphasized the importance of safety and responsibility. It's clear he loves animals, particularly the bears of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. Recommended to animal lovers and fans of the outdoors. It wasn’t as funny as I thought from reviews but it was entertaining. I love being in the mountains. I love bears. It was a good fit for me. I do find it sad that the stories were from the 1980’s and the ranger was talking, often, of people being more dangerous to bears. Here we are in 2021 and, living in Alaska, I can tell you people are still dangerous to bears...for the very same reasons as 1980. I found that a sad commentary on people and their inability to respect wildlife. The only bear I know named Yogi is on tv. The narrator, Carey Jones, was great. My family is from Appalachia and the Smoky Mountain area. I love that the narrator sounded from the region. It enriched my experience with the book. I felt like I was listening to stories from the front porch. I truly loved that. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

The author, a wildlife ranger in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, shares "true stories from 'an extraordinary landscape populated with befuddled bears, hormonally-crazed elk, homicidal wild boars, hopelessly timid wolves, and nine million tourists, some of whom are clueless.' In Kim DeLozier's world when sedated wild black bears wake up unexpectedly in the back seat of a helicopter in mid-flight, or in his car as he's driving down the highway, or in his office while he's talking on the phone, it's just another day in the park"--Cover.

But the book is tedious and repetitive, and written on a very basic level. My intense interest in bears and US wildlife in general kept me turning the pages.
