Summary

More
Wolves have gotten a pretty bad rap, but these wild dogs are really just misunderstood. They don't normally attack people, and are only aggressive when threatened. In fact, they cooperate really well with each other, hunting in packs to find food. Scientists have also discovered that the members of a wolf pack:

  • Talk to each other using body language
  • Have different roles and social statuses
  • Hoooooooowl at the moon together

This reader also talks about programs that reintroduce captive wolves to the wild, which is helping to preserve populations of these magnificent animals.

Who's afraid of the big bad wolf? Not the readers who pick up this absorbing book and learn what it takes to run with the pack.
