Discovering Big Cat Country

Eric Dinerstein relates his experiences searching for Tigers in Nepal serving as a Peace Corp volunteer who was in the midst of attaining a biology degree. Dinerstein humorously writes about the dangers of mud, overflowing rivers and wild animals as well as tracking methods used to locate the number of tigers. The second half of the book focuses on a trip that Dinerstein and biologist, Helen Freeman, made to higher altitudes in search of snow leopards.
