Appointment at the ends of the world

William B. Karesh

"From saving the life of a wounded okapi in Zaire to collecting DNA samples from endangered orangutans in Borneo, Dr. William Karesh cares for and protects animals in some of the most exotic and remote corners of the world. Now, in a book that is part travelogue, part conservation primer, and all adventure thriller, this world-renowned veterinarian shares some of his most fascinating - and dangerous - encounters in the wild."--BOOK JACKET. "Along with the vanishing forest elephants of sub-Saharan Africa and the other rare animals he encounters, Dr. Karesh introduces you to the remarkable, caring people he meets on his assignments, from dedicated conservationists to the villagers of Baro, Cameroon, who believe their wise men transform themselves into elephants."--BOOK JACKET.
