Summary

"Wolves! Strange and Wonderful reveals fascinating facts, from how wolves live in packs and hunt together to how they use their powerful jaw muscles to kill and eat their prey. Wolves establish and defend their territory with different howls and by leaving scent posts. Because wolves were seen as potentially harmful to livestock and humans, they were once hunted nearly to the point of extinction in the lower 48 states of the U.S. Now, many people are trying to find ways to both protect livestock and allow wolves to thrive, and to protect wolves' wild habitat."--, Front jacket flap
