“Tim Harrison has been called to remove bears from apartments, lions from city streets, bats from swimming pools, pythons from workshops, and cougars from backyards. He has met, and rescued, alligators from local rivers, farm ponds, pet stores and basements. He has raised a Bengal tiger and has mothered wolves. Pythons call his Springboro address home. Yet Wild Times, a collection of his wildest "suburban safaris", wasn’t written to compete with reality TV. The stories are hair-raising, and sometimes frightening. But Tim’s goal is to let people know of the growing chance that they’ll be coming across an exotic or local wild animal as their population increases in suburbs across the country. Harrison is a twenty five year veteran police officer, firefighter, and EMT-paramedic for the City of Oakwood in Montgomery County, Ohio. His popular speaking programs are legendary. Finally, he’s wrestled his stories between the covers of a book.”Photo by John Johnston

In the late 1950s and 60s, under the leadership of Roger Brucker and others, CRF expanded the known reaches of Flint Ridge caves and discovered connections between many of the other large caves in the park. In 1972, cavers found a connection between Mammoth Cave and the Flint Ridge Cave System. This historic discovery made Mammoth the world's longest cave, inspiring Roger Brucker and Richard Watson to publish The Longest Cave in 1976.Photo by John Johnston
