Beyond the story

BEYOND THE BOOK · IN THE WILD

A family story in the American West

Grey wolves, Canis lupus, live and hunt in packs, usually built around a family. Howling is one way they communicate. Wolves need room to travel and enough prey to support their pack.

Where is home?

Yellowstone National Park includes forests, open valleys and mountain country. It is one part of the wolf’s much wider range. Within the park, elk are an important food source, especially in winter; wolves also hunt other animals.

A life in the wild

After wolves had disappeared from Yellowstone, a reintroduction programme brought them back in 1995 and 1996. Scientists have followed their lives ever since, studying packs, reproduction, hunting and interactions with other wildlife.

A future worth protecting

Long-term monitoring helps people understand wolves in a changing landscape. Yellowstone’s Wolf Project brings together field observations and research to inform management and conservation.
