About this title

Synopsis

With full captions explaining how the species and its subspecies hunts and feeds, rears its young and migrates, and whether it is endangered and protected, Wolves is a brilliant examination in 150 outstanding colour photographs of this fascinating animal.

Wolves is an outstanding collection of photographs showing these intriguing animals in their natural habitat. It is divided into chapters on the lone wolf, wolves in winter, hunting, the wolf pack and wolf cubs. You’ll discover how wolves are adapted for hunting and running. They have big lungs and a heart that is twice as big as another mammal of a similar length and weight. They scare off wolves from another pack by adopting a low, hunched posture with mouth open and teeth arrayed in a snarl. However, when they have a broad, flat head, it indicates they are in a playful mood.
Wolves features a wide variety of wolf species from around the world, including: the Eurasian Wolf, Timber Wolf, Arctic Wolf, Northwestern Wolf, Yukon Wolf, Ethiopian Wolf, Tibetan Wolf and many more. It is an introduction to an animal that has fascinated, inspired and terrified people throughout history.
With full captions explaining how the species hunts and feeds, rears its young and migrates, Wolves is a brilliant examination in 150 outstanding colour photographs of this fascinating animal.
