1) A wolf Kids book by a contact of the Cat was discovered. It's
called:
Wild, Wild Wolves.

Recommended for 1st through 3rd graders, it is an excellent
source of information
on wolves. It has a neat story that goes through their history to the
present. The
book also shows the facts, rather than subscribing to the myths
about them.

2) Life: HUNTERS AND HUNTED had a clip of Ethiopian Wolves
hunting rats in Africa. Only 500 on avg as the clip claims are left.
Sadly the film is inaccurate a little on the pack structure. The
female solely doesn't run the pack as any wolf pack
has an Alpha female and male running operations. If the female is
staying home to nurse her pups, which one is going to supervise
the hunt?

Also the film didn't exactly EXPLAIN why their population is down
to 500.

It's because of rabies from dogs and human interference. It would
have been helpful if the website bio mentioned this.

But it doesn't. Maybe next time.

3) Dorothy Hearst's
Promise of the Wolves is out in paperback.

394477/ref=sr_1_1?ie=
UTF8&s=books&qid=1271215165&sr=1-1

Pick it up, it's an interesting tale of a wolf before the rise
of homo sapien. The book is around 14,400 years ago.

And it's about a wolf who becomes a deviant everywhere she
goes.

It's part of a trilogy. Hopefully the next one comes out soon.
