I know so much more about cows now and although I won't go visiting any at our wonderful nearby farms, I do have a new respect for them. This book was wonderful, a little too much science in the middle, but I recommend it for anyone who wants to know learn more animals souls.

Angefangen habe ich das Buch schon vor vielen Wochen. Mittendrin habe ich es weggelegt, weil die permanent drohende Gefahr, dass der Kojote von Menschen getötet wird, mir das Lesevergnügen trübte. Nun habe ich mich entschlossen, das Buch doch zu Ende zu lesen.
In einem amerikanischen Gebiet, in dem Kojoten als Feinde des Menschen angesehen werden und per Hubschrauber gejagt und getötet werden, zieht eine junge Frau einen Kojoten auf. Das Buch hat mir gut gefallen, beeindruckt hat mich die Fähigkeit der Autorin, ihr Verhältnis zum Kojoten immer wieder auf den Prüfstand zu stellen, damit ein Zusammenleben gelingt. Ein Welpe braucht eine andere Bezugsperson als ein pupertierender oder erwachsener Kojote.… (más)

Annoying story of "do gooder" saving the wildlife, turning a wild animal into a pet. Rehabilitation with release would have been a much better story.

I did review this book, darn it! Once again, Library Thing sends a missile of destruction my way. I know it's free and beggars can't be choosers but, dang! is it time to move to that other Library website... dare I say... G-R?

Anyway, an OK book made better by good narration but, even though I loved hearing about this little coyote's upbringing, at the same time my stomach lurched every time she left Charlie tied to a tree out in a ravine or some other place for hours and hours. DO NOT do this at home or in the wild with your dog, please!!!

The other really really annoying feature of the book was how this woman actually believed that she was so darn poor and had to struggle... "survival" she writes... :) ... while getting help from her boyfriend at a drop of a hat. Oh how hard she had it! White, beautiful woman privilege in action, with total non-recognition to boot. Oh well, we all have to try to get better at that.

For a truly beautiful story of the Wyoming wilds try "Letters from a Homesteading Woman" (something like that, you can find it I'm sure). For a so-so, cringe inducing but cute story of raising a coyote this is a good book to read.

For a real treat check out her website - she has some stunning photos and is a really good photographer
