An Outstanding Ecology Resource!

This is a compilation of research and studies published by some of the world's foremost authorities on wolf ecology and biology. It is a rich resource for students, naturalists, and wildlife researchers. An excellent addition to "Wolves: Behavior, Ecology, and Conservation," by some of the same authors. This is raw and thick ecology. Excellent and ground breaking!
