Fuzz: When Nature Breaks the Law by Mary Roach, 317 pages.
This book follows Mary Roach, prolific pop nonfiction writer, around the world as she investigates all sorts of human-animal conflict (and some human-plant conflict). Chapters follow Roach learning about man-eating leopards, invasive stoat control, poisonous plant management, and bear home invasions (among many more). Roach goes around the world to tour relevant locations and interview experts and officials responsible for every variety of conflict.
This was an interesting read, although I will say that a lot of it read more like a travel memoir than an informative book. But! It was still very fun and would make a nice casual read.
