A dazzling photographic and scientific portrait of how wolves are changing the very nature of Yellowstone. Highly acclaimed for its accuracy and photography of wild wolves.

“The book is breathtaking! For anyone who has traveled to Yellowstone in recent years and seen the wolves, this book is must reading.”

—National Wildlife Federation

“Outstanding and very accurate. (Halfpenny) puts all the scientific research into common language. He fills in with personal observations. The stories really personalize what happened.”

I read this a few weeks ago and somehow managed not to note it down. As I recall, the text was a bit hit or miss...but the photos were astounding! I highly recommend it as a picture book.

This book was on a recommended list of books for our trip to see the wolves in Yellowstone. It is a great book with wonderful pictures - all taken of wild Yellowstone wolves. I recommend it to anyone who is curious about the re-introduction of wolves into Yellowstone.

Fascinating. Have been reading about wolves for years, but this book holds so many new, interesting observations about this species and its impact on the environment.

This book caught my attention because all photographs in this book are of wild wolves in Yellowstone. None of the wolves are in captivity. Most calenders and books use pictures of all or some in captivity.

A very informative book about the wolves of Yellowstone, with breathtaking pictures. Highly recommended to anyone interested in the reintroduction of wolves, or just wolves in general.
