Abstract: Frank Buck, the intrepid Texas animal collector in the 1930s, enraptured generations of readers and moviegoers. Buck spent his life capturing alive every kind of animal, from birds to snakes to elephants. Buck always accompanied his animals on shipboard to be sure they were well treated and his stories leapt easily from the printed page to the silver screen in Wild Cargo and Fang and Claw.
