Description

It’s a tough call for Priya and her fellow forest guards, Ahmedji, Bhim and

Anil. They were trained not to interfere in the lives of the wild animals. But

how can they just stand by and do nothing?

As they think of a plan that will work, Priya, a mother herself, thinks of her

own little ‘cub’, her daughter Astha, who lives far away in the town with her

grandmother. Priya is a single mother who lives in a lonely outpost in the

forest so she can earn a living. Perhaps the Mama Bear too was ‘out at work’,

foraging for food, when her cubs got into trouble.

Based on a real incident, this moving, dramatic story illuminates the hidden

life of forest guards, the courageous and unsung women and men who work

tirelessly to protect India’s forests and its wildlife.

When I Met the Mama Bear is also a powerful story of mothers-both human

and animal-and their struggle to balance work with bringing up their young.
