The Thirteen Moons
The Moon of the Bears
Deep in the shadows of the Smoky Mountains in Tennessee, a gentle giant is stirring. It is February, the time of the spring thaw, and a black bear is finally emerging from her long winter hibernation. Her first steps out of the den mark the beginning of a fascinating new chapter in the wild.
Follow along as this incredible creature embarks on a full year of survival, discovery, and instinct. From her first hungry search for food in the chilly early spring to the warm, busy days of summer, you will experience the forest exactly as she does.
Every season brings a fresh challenge to the mountain landscape. You will watch the bear navigate changing weather, hunt for elusive meals, and prepare once again for the returning cold. This close-up journey offers a true, vivid look at the daily life and natural rhythms of one of America's most magnificent wild animals.
