| mountain goat anatomy: American Big Game in Its Haunts George Bird Grinnell, 1904 From its founding in 1887 by Theodore Roosevelt and the eminent conservationist writer-editor-publisher George Bird Grinnell, the Boone and Crockett Club exemplified the intersection of aristocratic big-game sportsmanship (and active contempt for market hunting), scientific curiosity, and conservationist values which provided significant leadership and support to the conservation movement in this era. The Club published several volumes of writings before 1920; this one illustrates the Club's interest and involvement in conservation action through a typical range of articles on hunting, wildlife and wilderness preservation, and natural history by prominent members, including President Roosevelt himself, while the Club's Constitution and lists of members (present and deceased) specify its purpose and suggest its niche in the world of America's social and political elite. |

| mountain goat anatomy: A Beast the Color of Winter , 2002-02-01 In North America there is one large animal that belongs almost entirely to the realm of towering rock and unmelting snow. Pressing hard against the upper limit of life's possibilities, it exists higher and steeper throughout the year than any other big beast on the continent. It is possibly the best and most complete mountaineer that ever existed on any continent. Oreamnos americanus is its scientific name. Its common name is mountain goat. Resourceful, belligerent, and unbelievably sure-footed, the mountain goat is a white-coated survivor from the Ice Age. Oreamnos americanus shares its dizzying alpine world with elk, eagles, bighorn sheep, and grizzlies. This first full-length book on the mountain goat offers a superbly written portrait of its life, habits, and environment. Douglas H. Chadwick tracked mountain goat herds for seven years, and his observations are richly textured and replete with fascinating and dramatic details. We learn of the mountain goats' lives from birth to adulthood, their feeding habits, unique social behavior and courtship rituals, and their long history. Chadwick also makes clear the troubling and escalating impact of the modern world on the mountain goat's wilderness home. This Bison Books edition features a new introduction by the author. |
