Wild wolves were reintroduced at Yellowstone National Park in the mid- 1990s. Their visibility has enabled researchers to make new discoveries about wolves and their interactions with each other and with other wildlife in Yellowstone. In this book, information on wolf social behavior, pack structure, territories, and hunting behavior is accompanied by color photos of the wild wolves of Yellowstone hunting and tending pups. The book end with tips on wolf watching in the park. Halfpenny teaches wolf classes at Yellowstone. Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
