Summary
"In 1926, the last wolf disappeared from Yellowstone National Park. Without wolves, elk herds overran the plains. The trees and plants began to wither. Bears went hungry, rabbit families shrank, and birds flew away to new homes. Could the park be saved ... by the wolves it had lost? After years of planning, in 1995 a team of experts was ready to find out. They carefully relocated fourteen wolves from the Canadian Rockies to Yellowstone. This is the story of their homecoming."--Publisher's description
