Extraordinary photographs describe the daily life of wolves and the natural settings that must be preserved to allow the species to survive. At the same time, thanks to the accessible narrative contributed by a famous naturalist, the volume makes a significant contribution to the scientific understanding of this extraordinary mammal. Only in recent years has the wolf come to be known for waht it really is, thanks to the studies done on its life in the wild. Observations made by researchers such as Gerard and Anne Dominique Menatory have discredited much common misinformation and have made it possible to publish well-researched volumes like this one, which attempt to do justice to the entire species. This volume presents a unique and impassioned journey into discovering the daily habits and mysterious behavior of one of the last great predators on the planet.
