The Company of Wolves

Front Cover
10 Reviews
Random House Digital, Inc., Jun 29, 2011 - Nature - 400 pages
As wolves return to their old territory in Yellowstone National Park, their presence is reawakening passions as ancient as their tangled relations with human beings. This authoritative and eloquent book coaxes the wolf out from its camouflage of myth and reveals the depth of its kinship with humanity, which shares this animal's complex complex social organization, intense family ties, and predatory streak.
