Book pickup begins Friday, April 17, in The Launch Pad. Ages 14 and older. Join Mary Roach on an irresistible investigation into the unpredictable world where wildlife and humans meet. R

"Roach tags along with animal-attack forensics investigators, human-elephant conflict specialists, bear managers, and 'danger tree' faller blasters. Intrepid as ever, she travels from leopard-terrorized hamlets in the Indian Himalaya to St. Peter’s Square in the early hours before the pope arrives for Easter Mass, when vandal gulls swoop in to destroy the elaborate floral display. She taste-tests rat bait, learns how to install a vulture effigy, and gets mugged by a macaque."
