i have....

i haven't read this book, but just within the last few days, read that 0-six strayed from park boundaries and was shot and killed.

A beautiful and informative book

This is a wonderful book. Informative and entertaining, you can really tell the author was passionate about this project.

This is the most important book you will read this year

Loved this book, it is about the reintroduction of wolves into Yellowstone where they have been missing for a very long time. It follows the story of an alpha female O-Six. Please read the first chapter, you'll be hooked, I could not put it down. Wolves are so very important in keeping balance in nature. There is an important YouTube video that should be viewed as well: How Wolves Change Rivers. Everyone should read this book
