Geocache Description:


EST: Jim Corbett (1875-1955), inglise looduseuurija, jahimees on kirjutanud minu meelest ühe kõige köitvama raamatu: „ Inimesesööjad“.  Eestikeelsesse raamatusse on koondatud tema kaks inglise keelest tõlgitud raamatut „The Man-Eating Leopard of Rudraprayag“ ja  „Temple Tiger and More Man-Eaters of Kumaon“. Põnevat lugemist!
