Description: Since the early 1940s, North America has been the focus of studies of free-ranging wolves. Much of Canada and most of Alaska support numerous, viable, and sometimes thriving wolf populations. This text considers the behavior and ecology of wild wolves in North America, Europe, Eurasia, Israel, and Iran. It also discusses wolf behavior in captivity and methods of conservation. Most of the papers included were originally presented at the 1979 Portland International Wolf Symposium.
