Wolves: A Wildlife Handbook (Johnson Nature Series)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
A combination of illustrated field guide, fact book, and folklore collection, "Wolves" is a new kind of wildlife book. This concise, illustrated handbook presents an accurate, informative portrait of wolves in their natural habitat, along with an examination of their relationship to man.
Admired by some and hated by others, wolves have been the focus of an astonishlingly passionate political struggle over the past few years. Endangered and all but exterminated, these predators are now returning to habitats from which they had completely disappeared. With conservationists insisting that wolves are needed to control burgeoning populations of elk and deer, and with ranchers insisting that their livestock-and livelihoods-will be in danger, an objective, comprehensive (yet comprehensible) examination of wolves is needed and timely. Fact, fiction, history, and wildlife reference, "Wolves" is the first user-friendly guide to this species.
