Book Synopsis Sea Serpents: On the Hunt in British Columbia by : Pat Spain
Download or read book Sea Serpents: On the Hunt in British Columbia written by Pat Spain and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2023-01-27 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pat Spain is used to doing things that he acknowledges are not normal — such as lying in a pit of 200,000 snakes or having a pygmy village take excessive interest in his bathroom habits. /Sea Serpents: On the Hunt in British Columbia/ chronicles the coolest thing this host of multiple wildlife-adventure TV series has done yet — traveling 1,000 feet underwater in a three-man sub. Follow Spain, and the National Geographic film crew that went with him, as he sets sail on a commercial fishing boat with a dozen angry men; plays a dangerous, absolutely bonkers sport; almost falls off a mountain while drunkenly hiking; and then some. Spain puts his marine biology degree to good use by getting drunk off the fumes of a pickled specimen of the largest bony fish on Earth, all in an effort to track down the truth behind stories of a giant Canadian sea serpent. The answer to the mystery probably isn't what you're thinking.
Book Synopsis 200,000 Snakes: On the Hunt in Manitoba by : Pat Spain
Download or read book 200,000 Snakes: On the Hunt in Manitoba written by Pat Spain and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2022-12-09 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pat Spain was living the life he had always dreamed of. He had just finished filming his first National Geographic TV series Beast Hunter, put in an offer on his first house with his girlfriend, was in the best physical shape he'd ever been in, had paid off the massive debt he'd incurred filming a web-based wildlife series and was getting to hang out with his TV and punk-rock idols like Harry Marshall, Henry Rollins and Brady Barr when he started getting stomach pains. A diagnosis of stage-3 colon cancer brought Pat's world crashing down around him in an instant. He went from planning a press tour and an appearance on The Tonight Show to learning how to change an ostomy bag, re-learning how to walk, and finding out if he liked pot brownies. On the Hunt in Manitoba is the darkly comedic story of how Pat became a wildlife TV host, lost his dream job, almost lost his life and came back from the depths the only way he knew how - covered in 200,000 snakes.
Book Synopsis The Mongolian Death Worm: On the Hunt in the Gobi Desert by : Pat Spain
Download or read book The Mongolian Death Worm: On the Hunt in the Gobi Desert written by Pat Spain and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2022-12-09 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pat Spain is not a very good dancer. Nor is he a person used to wearing bikini briefs, or wrestling in front of hundreds of nomads and an international TV audience. He is certainly not a person you would expect to find wearing said bikini briefs while dancing in front of said audience, but here we are: On the Hunt in the Gobi Desert. Pat and a National Geographic film crew are searching for the truth behind stories of the Mongolian Death Worm, and to crack this legend Pat will have to wrestle a giant while risking indecent exposure, brave the worlds' most disgusting long-drop bathroom, eat and drink toxic 'delicacies', wrangle a very jumpy electric eel and testy spitting cobra, avoid the temptation to smuggle archeological artifacts and deal with bed-bug and camel-tick infestations while they traverse the least densely populated country in the world, Mongolia.
Book Synopsis A Little Bigfoot: On the Hunt in Sumatra by : Pat Spain
Download or read book A Little Bigfoot: On the Hunt in Sumatra written by Pat Spain and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2022-12-09 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the course of Pat Spain's time filming wildlife-adventure TV series, he's gotten pretty used to being uncomfortable. There've been rabid raccoon attacks, days spent in the baking equatorial African sun, and consumption of many revolting local delicacies like fermented mare's milk. And then there was Sumatra. On the Hunt in Sumatra details the two weeks Pat spent soaking wet with a National Geographic film crew tracking the legendary Orang Pendak through the forests of Indonesia, while tigers, leeches, amorous orangutans, Coldplay fans, a guide named Uncle Happy, two shaman, car demons, and rogue cameramen tracked them. It is, without a doubt, the most inhospitable terrain Pat's ever encountered, with the highest likelihood of grievous bodily harm. But the payoff is the theory he reached about Orang Pendak, and a 5 a.m. EDM Tai Chi party.
Book Synopsis A Living Dinosaur: On the Hunt in West Africa by : Pat Spain
Download or read book A Living Dinosaur: On the Hunt in West Africa written by Pat Spain and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2022-12-09 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the Hunt in West Africa finds Bostonian Pat Spain, an inexperienced but enthusiastic traveler and wildlife biologist, on the first shoot of his new National Geographic TV series in Cameroon, the Congo, and the Central African Republic. He was told it would be his “trial by fire” for the world of wildlife TV, and soon finds that to be literally true after their decrepit pick-up truck catches fire while doing 100 MPH on a dirt road. Things only get more uncomfortable for Pat from there as he experiences the wildlife (getting charged by a silverback gorilla and having a killer bee land on his exposed penis), the food (eating rat and face-meltingly hot peppers), and some local traditions (he's almost arrested, accidentally married, and inadvertently invites an evil forest spirit to live in the Pygmy village he's staying in), and somehow manages (in his mind, at least) to solve the mystery of Mokele M'Bembe - a supposed living dinosaur in the riverways connecting these three countries.
Book Synopsis A Bulletproof Ground Sloth: On the Hunt in Brazil by : Pat Spain
Download or read book A Bulletproof Ground Sloth: On the Hunt in Brazil written by Pat Spain and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2023-01-27 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This is the scene everyone will remember,” is how the director described the bullet-ant ceremony moments before Pat Spain took his place in the line of initiates. If online views, memes, family parties, and talk-show mentions are the measure, he wasn't wrong. The Tucandeira ceremony of the Sateré-Mawé is known as the most extreme ritual in the world, and Pat agrees with that assessment wholeheartedly. After hosting hundreds of hours of wildlife-adventure TV programs, Pat is no stranger to the pain animals can inflict, but the bullet ants took this to an entirely new level. On the Hunt in Brazil is an unblinking look into Pat's journey through Amazonia with a National Geographic film crew, attempting to uncover the truth behind the mythical mapinguari - a giant one eyed monster who can kill you with a scream. Over the course of two weeks, Pat participates in the Tucandeira, smuggles weapons on an aircraft, accidentally exposes himself to old people, learns that Brazil's sexy reputation is well deserved, and hears an ancient legend, never before shared with a Westerner, that points him towards a conclusion about the mapinguari and a surprising explanation for the seemingly tall-tales.

Book Synopsis Encyclopedia of Cryptozoology by : Michael Newton
Download or read book Encyclopedia of Cryptozoology written by Michael Newton and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2016-10-05 with total page 585 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On every continent and in every nation, animals unrecognized by modern science are reported on a daily basis. People passionately pursue these creatures--the name given to their field of study is cryptozoology. Coined in the 1950s, the term literally means the science of hidden animals. When the International Society of Cryptozoology (ISC) was formed in 1982, the founders declared that the branch of science is also concerned with "the possible existence of known animals in areas where they are not supposed to occur (either now or in the past) as well as the unknown persistence of presumed extinct animals to the present time or to the recent past...what makes an animal of interest to cryptology is that it is unexpected." This reference work presents a "flesh and blood" view of cryptozoology. Here, 2,744 entries are listed, the majority of which each describe one specific creature or type of creature. Other entries cover 742 places where unnamed cryptids are said to appear; profiles of 77 groups and 112 individuals who have contributed to the field; descriptions of objects and events important to the subject; and essays on cryptotourism and hoaxes, for example. Appendices offer a timeline of zoological discoveries, annotated lists of movies and television series with cryptozoological themes, a list of crypto-fiction titles and a list of Internet websites devoted to cryptozoology.

Download or read book Cryptozoology A To Z written by Loren Coleman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2013-05-07 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ultimate quest for the world's most mysterious creatures The Loch Ness Monster, Bigfoot, the Abominable Snowman -- these are the names of the elusive beasts that have caught the eye and captured the imaginations of people around the world for centuries. Recently, tales of these "monsters" have been corroborated by an increase in sightings, and out of these legends a new science has been born: cryptozoology -- the study of hidden animals. Cryptozoology A to Z, the first encyclopedia of its kind, contains nearly two hundred entries, including cryptids (the name given to these unusual beasts), new animal finds, and the explorers and scientists who search for them. Loren Coleman, one of the world's leading cryptozoologists, teams up with Jerome Clark, editor and author of several encyclopedias, to provide these definitive descriptions and many never-before-published drawings and photographs from eyewitnesses' detailed accounts. Full of insights into the methods of these scientists, exciting tales of discovery, and the history and evolution of this field, Cryptozoology A to Z is the most complete reference ever of the newest zoological science.
Book Synopsis French Canadians, Furs, and Indigenous Women in the Making of the Pacific Northwest by : Jean Barman
Download or read book French Canadians, Furs, and Indigenous Women in the Making of the Pacific Northwest written by Jean Barman and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2015-02-25 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jean Barman was the recipient of the 2014 George Woodcock Lifetime Achievement Award. In French Canadians, Furs, and Indigenous Women in the Making of the Pacific Northwest, Jean Barman rewrites the history of the Pacific Northwest from the perspective of French Canadians attracted by the fur economy, the indigenous women whose presence in their lives encouraged them to stay, and their descendants. Joined in this distant setting by Quebec paternal origins, the French language, and Catholicism, French Canadians comprised Canadiens from Quebec, Iroquois from the Montreal area, and métis combining Canadien and indigenous descent. For half a century, French Canadians were the largest group of newcomers to this region extending from Oregon and Washington east into Montana and north through British Columbia. Here, they facilitated the early overland crossings, drove the fur economy, initiated non-wholly-indigenous agricultural settlement, eased relations with indigenous peoples, and ensured that, when the region was divided in 1846, the northern half would go to Britain, giving today’s Canada its Pacific shoreline.
