As Derek worked to reintroduce the beaver, he began to hear stories of the wolf, both real and mythical, and his fascination with it grew.
He pieced together fragments of information, stories, and artifacts to reveal a shadowy creature that first walked proud through these lands and then was hunted to extinction.
What Derek came to realize was that the underlying motives behind our hatred were actually rooted in power and profit.
We turned the wolf into a savage beast and saw its extirpation as a civilizing mission.
But the wolf endured, and Derek tells of his sightings through folklore and mythology, the records of grand estates and parish churches, as well as wolf heads, both real and recreated.
With bitingly funny but also tender stories, Hunt for the Shadow Wolf makes clear why we must reconcile our relationship with this majestic animal before we can begin to bring it back to these lands.
