The 21st Century Predator - Paperback

by Cedar Elkheart (Author)

In the rippling wake of a global pandemic, the once small town of Moab, Utah is buckling at its seams. Follow Cedar Elkheart, a backcountry guide in Southeastern Utah as he struggles to deal with a myriad of complex and loaded topics, such as ecological destruction and overpopulation that have been unearthed from beneath the sand by social trails and 4x4 tracks. A traveler in this land, he uncovers new insights and revelations after surviving the Pack Creek Fire while backpacking. Exploring this landscape entails more than red soil and green rivers, it involves taking a fresh look at human impacts in the face of our climate emergency. Being a vegan, Cedar decides that to achieve an objective viewpoint on this landscape he must hunt the territory's most elusive and cunning creature: the coyote. Does the true 21st century predator speak, or howl?
