Wolves are anything but simple chase-and-kill hunters. They develop sophisticated strategies that rival those of professional sports teams. It starts with having a 25% larger brain than Dogs, coupled with a highly evolved envisioning and coordinating intelligence. Add to that one of the most complex and precise languages in the animal kingdom, and you have not only a very advanced hunter, but an animal with the ability to pass on sophisticated knowledge to offspring and create a warm and safe home environment that would be the envy of many Human families.
Yet this book has no data, no graphs, no research reports—in fact, no Human presence at all. It is just pure Wolf. With every page, you go deeper and deeper into Wolf consciousness and culture. It’s as though you are there merged into the body and soul of a Wolf and experiencing it all firsthand. You have a comprehensive window into the way their minds work, what motivates them, and how they die. You experience the joy of victory and the agony of defeat, you feel the amorous energy of the mating season, you are there when the pups are born, and you’re at their side when they face down a Grizzly Bear or a rival pack.
With every page, you go deeper and deeper into a world alive with undying love and the indomitable will to serve the pack with valor and integrity. The Secret World of the Wolf could be the definitive portrayal of this iconic animal in all her mystery and majesty.
