Award-winning author Tom Walker draws on unparalleled access to a research study of wolves in Alaska to share the story of Wolf 258, nicknamed \"the Wanderer.\" Relying on a GPS collar that recorded the animal’s coordinates each day, biologists tracked Wolf 258 as he moved through the wilderness---and, astonishingly, traveled more than 2600 miles in less than six months.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThrough the lens of one wolf’s epic journey, Walker highlights connections to terrain, history, looming threats, and other animals. He recounts the animal’s compelling final months, while examining the broader complexity of the species’ struggle for survival. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Wanderer\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e explores not only the natural history of wolves but the relationship of people--Indigenous, pioneers and settlers, biologists, politicians--with this predator, shedding light on the long-established northern traditions of trapping and hunting, the tangled politics of wolf management, and how artificial borders fail to contain this iconic species.\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Todd Communications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67656477639024,"sku":"ucm1791382727954","price":14.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0953\/5170\/1872\/files\/the-wanderer-an-alaska-wolfs-final-journey_1.jpg?v=1791382732","url":"https:\/\/www.mapleandmoss.shop\/products\/the-wanderer-an-alaska-wolfs-final-journey","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
