Deer Man: Seven Years of Living in the Forest

Product Information

He would often disappear into the woods, drawn to the rhythms of animal life and away from the rules of a society he did not understand. One trusts Delorme enough to follow his lead to safety during a hunt and then shares what the human taught him with other deer!

Antingen har jag huvudet för långt uppe i min egen moderna röv eller så är jag bara skeptisk, men jag har svårt att ta honom på orden, åtminstone inledningsvis. De surcroit, les chasseurs occasionnent de grands dégâts au niveau psychique des chevreuils et autres animaux. There’s a dreamy moment halfway through Geoffroy Delorme’s brief, sensuous book in which one of the young deer he gets to know curls up beside him, its head resting on his leg. Por lo demás, una lectura muy amena, incluso cuando el autor se pone algo más técnico, con capítulos breves que incluyen fotografías preciosas que realizó en esos años. Delome’s writing style requires you to lean on your experience of nature and supplement it with empathy for a species of animal we often dismiss as of non-value to study.A moment later, he lifts his head slightly, yawns, looking at me, then rests it against my thigh, near my hand. I found this an intriguing book: how many people, after all, would go to this extent in their love for wildlife? Deer Management and Conservation Services (DMCS) offer a range of solutions for property owners across the whole of the UK landscape from mixed arable and woodland, to classic Highland terrain. We laten vluchtelingen op straat slapen, mensen komen om van de kou terwijl het bij ons binnen nog een aangename 16 graden is.

Transmite en el lector la conexión que siente con la naturaleza y te hace desprenderte de una falsa humanidad. One night, an encounter with a deer changed his life: from then on, he knew he wanted to live among them. Though a good deal of the book is about the connection he feels with the deer and the forest, there is also plenty of hard fact here, on roe deer physiognomy and behaviour, on ecology and ecosystems, on how 'forestry' is wrecking wildlife. Yet a fleeting encounter with a young buck draws him into the woods around Louviers, France, and off he goes. I heard leaves crumpling, and when I turned to look, I saw what looked like a deer on its hind legs.What we are left with is a startling portrait of an animal that is both familiar to us and yet shockingly misunderstood. It is the same every time: I go to sleep, start dreaming, and all of a sudden, I wake up quite numb, feeling as if I am going to be sick. Et Geoffroy à la naissance, c’est comme… comme un enfant qui entend de la musique classique quand il est encore dans la matrice, ou dès la naissance, et qui devient musicien plus tard. En su mochila encontramos: latas de conserva, ropa de abrigo, agua potable, las herramientas necesarias para sobrevivir en un medio hostil y, por supuesto, una cámara. This book was fantastical, heartwarming, (and at moments, heartbreaking), informative (but not in a dense way) and un-put-down-able.
