Synopsis
No matter that humans happily play with its direct descendent, the domestic dog; wolves have been hunted nearly till extinction. Go beyond the terrifying myths and find out the truth about these remarkable animals -- why they make formidable adversaries for hunters; the function of their physiques from their sharp, powerful teeth to the tips of their claws; their complex social structure and even the development of our beloved dogs. A marvelous array of color photos shows canines at play and at rest, swimming, foraging, and wandering the range.
