Saving Wildlife Kenneth Edward Barnes

This book is mostly about the birds and animals of Indiana, although many of these species live or did live all over North America or in the eastern United States. The author has included several of his conservation stories that were either published in his newspaper columns or were in local, regional, or national magazines. In some of the stories, Ken made predictions about the future of some species returning to Indiana, which have since come to pass. There are a few other stories from his book "Life Along Little Pigeon Creek"; stories such as The Panther, The Ingenious Trap, and The Great Yankeetown Easter Egg Hunt, which people of all ages will enjoy. There are also stories about some spectacular birds that once were common along Little Pigeon Creek where the author grew up, but are now extinct. Other stories are about the successful reintroduction of birds and animals into their former habitat. Species which had completely disappeared, but today, are so common that few realize they were ever gone. Therefore, I'm sure if you love wildlife, there will be many stories in this book that you will enjoy. If so, let me know by going to Amazon and giving it a rating and a book review. Thank you.
