Called the Jane Goodall of wolves, world-renowned wildlife biologist Diane Boyd has spent four decades studying and advocating for wolves in the wilds of Montana near Glacier National Park. When she started in the 1970s, she was the only female biologist in the United States researching and radio-collaring wild wolves. With her two dogs for company, she faced the rigors of the Montana winter in an isolated cabin without running water or electricity.
In this captivating book, Boyd takes the reader on a wild ride from the early days of wolf research to the present-day challenges of wolf management across the globe, highlighting her interactions with an apex predator that captured her heart and her undying admiration. Her writing resonates with her indomitable spirit as she explores the intricate balance of human and wolf coexistence.
Rarely are books about wolf conservation written by women. Boyd adds a much-needed female voice to the popular niche of American wolf literature. She describes the challenges of being the only woman in the room. Boyd's memoir is a nail-biter with stories about trapping and tranquilizing wolves and even grizzly bears in the bush, on her own, often under extreme weather conditions.
