"A redemption story, an adventure story, and perhaps above all, a love story." Nate Blakeslee, New York Times-bestselling author of American Wolf. The Druid Peak Pack was the most famous wolf pack in Yellowstone National Park, and maybe even in the world. This is the dramatic true story of its remarkable leader, Wolf 21-whose compassion and loyalty challenges commonly held beliefs about alpha males. In this compelling follow-up to the national bestseller. The Rise of Wolf 8, Rick McIntyre profiles one of Yellowstone's most revered alpha males, Wolf 21. Leader of the Druid Peak Pack, Wolf 21 was known for his unwavering bravery, his unusual benevolence unlike other alphas, he never killed defeated rival males , and his fierce commitment to his mate, the formidable Wolf 42. Wolf 21 and Wolf 42 were attracted to each other the moment they met-but Wolf 42's jealous sister interfered viciously in their relationship. After an explosive insurrection within the pack, the two wolves came together at last as leaders of the Druid Peak Pack, which dominated the park for more than 10 years. McIntyre recounts the pack's fascinating saga with compassion and a keen eye for detail, drawing on his many years of experience observing Yellowstone wolves in the wild.

Truly Amazing

This is such an amazing story! I've learned so much about wolves and how they live. I am currently working on a project on Yellowstone Wolves, and I'm not sure I would be right now if it weren't for this great book.

Best Book I've Read All Year

Wolves are often seen only as aggressive predators by many in society. This book shows while they can be aggressive when they need to, it is not their complete nature. Their behavior is in many ways like your dog’s, playful and loving. The book covers the years 2000 - 2004 with fascinating details of the daily life of the wolves, from hunts to adult wolves coaxing puppies into crossing streams with sticks. The author spent 25 years studying wolves at Yellowstone National Park. His vast knowledge allows him to pass on information about the packs and their dynamics in an easy to understand way. He shares stories of Wolf 21 and his family and interactions with other wolf packs throughout the park. Anyone who loves nature should read this book. The best book I've read all year! I received an ARC from LibraryThing Early Reviewers in exchange for an honest review.
