Villainized in folklore and literature and considered a bloodthirsty threat to children, sheep and cattle, the grey wolf was nearly wiped out in North America by the 1930s. Swinburne documents conservationists' efforts to reintroduce grey wolves to the ecosystems of Yellowstone and New York State. With color photography, for kids ages 9-12.
