"OH NO, GERTRUDE!, The True Story of a Not-So-Naughty Black Bear" is a picture book by Gabriel Mapel, son of Wild Earth Founder Daniel Mapel, that tells the true story of a Black Bear named Gertrude and her 3 little bear cubs, who had their lives put at risk because of naughty people. Gabriel Mapel, 10, wrote this book to teach people how to help keep Black Bears safe.
"An insightful, accurate book -- everyone young and old needs to hear the message Gabriel presents here: we have a people problem not a bear problem! The future of these present, intelligent, misunderstood animals depends on it. Gabriel is an amazing boy who has a profound love of wild animals coupled with an innate understanding of bears -- this type of understanding is a gift, one that few in this world have." -- Chris Day, Naturalist and co-star with the bears in the National Wildlife Federation film BEARS IMAX.
