Description
Since the early 1940s, North America has been the focus of studies of free-ranging wolves. Much of Canada and most of Alaska support numerous

Europe, Eurasia, Israel, and Iran. It also discusses wolf behavior in captivity and methods of conservation.
Audience
Animal scientists, veterinarians, agricultural and zoological managers and handlers, animal behaviorists.
