About this title

From the Back Cover

Wolves are much more than big, bad animals that prey on other animals. Did you know that wolves

• are like dogs—they are loyal, affectionate, and highly intelligent.
• live in packs—or families—led by the strongest female and male.
• are friendly with one another: They play games, bring food to one another, and even babysit one another’s cubs!

Award-winning science writer Seymour Simon has teamed up with the Smithsonian Institution to give you the real story about this mythical and legendary animal in an updated edition of his classic full-color photographic introduction.
