About 2 h 58 min of reading99 chapters

Wild Animals at Home, published in 1913, gathers Ernest Thompson Seton's observations of the mammals of the American West, drawn from nearly thirty years of travel in the Rocky Mountains and illustrated with more than a hundred and fifty of his sketches and photographs. Seton writes about the coyote and its song, prairie dogs and pack rats, the fox, marten, beaver and otter, the blacktail deer, elk and moose, and finally the bears of Yellowstone Park, where he watched grizzlies and black bears gather at the garbage piles of the hotels. The tone is personal and often humorous, and an appendix lists the mammals of Yellowstone. The full text is available to read online in your browser on Vinteuil, and the first chapter is free.
