What Goes on Inside a Wolf Pack
Join a pack of wolves during a year in Yellowstone National Park as they rear new pups, traverse their territory, cross rivers, chase ravens, bump into bears and meet a host of other diverse animals.
With vibrantly illustrated pages and engaging storytelling, a family of wolves comes to life in the rugged and beautiful setting of Yellowstone National Park. Through the seasons, readers will learn about all aspects of wolf life, including:
- Spring denning and the first months of life with a new litter of pups
- The excitement and danger of the hunt
- Defending the territory from other wolf packs
- Interactions with bears, coyotes, ravens, elk, bison, and a host of other animals
Informative side panels enhance the story with details about wolf behavior and anatomy, as well as facts about other animals and plants that inhabit the ecosystem. Author Kathleen Yale has worked as a wildlife field biologist and has teamed up with the International Wolf Center, one of the world's most respected nonprofits for education and research about wolves.
