"An appealing, elegantly designed introduction to another
much-maligned species." —Kirkus (starred review) "A fascinating,
informative, and inclusive window into a feared and misunderstood
species." —Booklist (starred review) This myth-busting addition
to the critically acclaimed Scientists in the Field series by
Sibert medal winning team Sy Montgomery and Nic Bishop is perfect
for nonfiction readers looking for more female scientist
narratives, or a fresh perspective on an underrepresented
animal—Hyenas! Timely and inspiring, The Hyena Scientist sets the
record straight about one of history’s most hated and
misunderstood mammals, while featuring the groundbreaking,
pioneering research of a female scientist in a
predominately male field in this offering by Sibert-winning
duo Sy Montgomery and Nic Bishop. As a scientist studying one of
the only mammalian societies led entirely by females, zoologist Kay
Holecamp has made it her life’s work to understand hyenas, the
fascinating, complex creatures that are playful, social, and highly
intelligent—almost nothing like the mangy monsters of pop culture
lore.
