Summary: The BEST of the BEST!!
Comment: This book is simply the best book you could get for learning all about wolves. Great guide book about everything about wolves. Great pictures and research by Robert H Bucsh. I would also reccomend reading about their behaviour as well, this book only teaches the basics, but you should also get The Wolf: The Ecology and Behavior of an Endangered Species by L David Mech, or any other book by L David Mech; he is the best wolf biologist known!

Summary: Outstanding overview of the wolf itself, & its conservation
Comment: Robert Busch is considered to be among the top wolf experts, and he's created a fabulous book with _The Wolf Almanac_. He gives concise, accurate information about the wolf's anatomy & physiology, behaviors, social structure, history, evolution, and current range, as well as its role in human culture. He covers predators' roles in nature, the trapping/hunting industry, pet wolves & wolf-dog hybrids, and information about current wolf conservation efforts. Some of the hard stats he gives are out of date, since they are from 1998, and things have changed quite a bit since then, but overall, this is a great, informative book.

Busch gives many anecdotes from wolf researchers and conservationists, as well as quotes and stories from the ranching and trapping points of view. There are quite a few gorgeous full-color photos in the center portion, and many black and white photos run throughout. This is a fantastic educational tool for anyone interested in learning more about wolves and their behaviors. Nearly every facet of the wolf is covered in this book. I am a tour guide at Wolf Haven (South of Olympia, Washington,) and this book is required reading before becoming certified to give the tours - it's that good.

There are a lot of really good books out there about wolves, and this one is simply outstanding.

Summary: Awesome!!!
Comment: This is a great book!! I first checked it out of the library for a report, and realized that I just had to have my own copy. It is filled with excellent information and beautiful photos. It is quite possibly, one of my most treasured books.
