More and more we hear stories of bears entering suburban neighborhoods, mountain lions attacking household pets and deer invading our backyard gardens. Our guest says that the problem is a result of two worlds colliding - rebounding nature and civilization's sprawl each moving in toward the other neither showing signs of slowing its advance. Now that wildlife protection laws have brought back many animal species and as American cites grow; can we coexist? Laura's guest is David Baron, Long-time Environmental and Science reporter for National Public Radio and author of the new book "The Beast in the Garden: A Modern Parable of Man and Nature."
