R.D. Lawrence
[edit]- ... that Canadian naturalist R. D. Lawrence followed a cougar in the wild for nine months, and spent six months observing a beaver colony?
- Reviewed: Cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome
- Comment: This is a five-times expansion if you leave out the non-prose lists of awards and books. As the source is not easy to access, I am providing the relevant portion here. From the Macleans article: "Later, he spent nine months tracking and observing a puma in southeastern British Columbia, which produced two books, The Ghost Walker, a nonfiction work, and later a novel, The White Puma. He has also devoted six months to studying a beaver colony in central Ontario and, in 1971, cruised up the West Coast from Victoria to Alaska in a 28-foot pleasure craft."

Great personality, on good sources, offline souces accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. I love the quotes. - Be prepared to reference his books and awards. I wonder about the article name, - some insist it has to be J. S. Bach, not J.S. Bach. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:42, 13 May 2018 (UTC)
