- Summary:
- Second only to humans in adapting to climate extremes, grey wolves once ranged from coast to coast and from Alaska to Mexico in North America. By the early 20th century, government-sponsored predator control programs and declines in prey brought grey wolves to near extinction in 48 states. This book examines the Endangered Species Act as it applies to grey wolves, with a focus on the grey wolf population, recovery, and biology in the United States today.
