A more credible source on wolves is L. David Mech,
author of "The Wolf: The Ecology and Behavior of an
Endangered Species," originally published in 1970,
updated in 1980.  Mech is a wildlife biologist for the
U. S. Dept. of the Interior and has studied wolves in
the wild since the 1960's.  This book has been called
"the preeminent document of its kind," "the best
single source of information on wolf biology," a
seminal work on this subject, and its author "the
undisputed king of wolf research."

In the early 1990s when the U.S. government decided on
an ambitious project to reintroduce wolves into their
former range of Yellowstone National Park, they called
on Mech to advise on the project.
