Synopsis

The wolf has captured the imagination of people everywhere for centuries. Today, thousands journey to wilderness parks in the hope of seeing this elusive creature or hearing its haunting howl. Yet the mythology surrounding the wolf frequently conjures up the images of a bloodthirsty, marauding beast. In fact, there is no record of a wolf killing a human in North America, and it is though that those reported in Europe were committed by rabid animals or mastiff-wolf hybrids. This book seeks to dispel the myths that have often resulted in the persecution of one of the world's most fascinating animals.
