Wolves are an integral part of our Central European culture. They are not just mythical creatures or fearsome monsters, but also competitors for food and symbols of death. However, wolves also exhibit very pronounced social behavior and fascinate many people as the ancestors of our dogs. Now, the wolf is beginning to reclaim its habitats in Germany, which leaves the residents of the "wolf areas" oscillating between horror and enthusiasm. Germany now has more wolf advisors than wolves. This beautiful illustrated book aims to showcase the fascination for the wolf, away from political discussions, and to promote understanding of its situation as an indigenous species in a landscape that has changed significantly.
