Mowat is dropped alone onto the frozen  tundra, where he begins his mission to live among the howling wolf  packs and study their waves. Contact with his quarry comes quickly, and  Mowat discovers not a den of marauding killers but a courageous family  of skillful providers and devoted protectors of their young. As Mowat  comes closer to the wolf world, he comes to fear with them on onslaught  of bounty hunters and government exterminators out to erase the noble  wolf community from the Arctic.Never Cry Wolfis one of the  brilliant narratives on the myth and magical world of wild wolves and  man's true place among the creatures of nature. "We have doomed the  wolf not for what it is, but for what we deliberately and mistakenly  perceive it to be -- the mythological epitome of a savage, ruthless  killer -- which is, in reality, no more than the reflected image of  ourself." -- from the new preface toNever Cry Wolf.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
