Description

Very few people have ever even heard of the Ethiopian wolf, a canid found only in isolated pockets of mountainous Ethiopia, where it is listed as "critically endangered." With less than 1,000 individuals estimated to be in existence, the future of this rare canid depends almost entirely on human efforts. This book will introduce students to the social, biological, and physiological makeup of the Ethiopian wolf.

Description

Photographs and text provide information about Ethiopian wolves, the only wolf species in Africa, explaining what they are, their behaviors, lifestyles, and eating habits, and discussing efforts to save them from extinction.
