Caribou Rainforest
From Heartbreak to Hope
David Moskowitz
In an inland North American rainforest that few people even know exists, about a dozen dwindling herds of caribou are struggling to survive. Caribou Rainforest tells of the possible extinction of the last mountain caribou herds found in Canada and the United States. David Moskowitz helps us understand why this is happening: how we, as humans, affect even the most remote places on the planet and how our personal, political, and environmental choices matter.
