Philippa Forrester, a TV presenter, has always dreamed of living among wolves in the US Wild West. When her family moved to Grand Teton National Park, they were immediately captivated by the wildlife, particularly the wolves. However, their excitement turned to concern when they learned that many locals were not happy about sharing their land with wolves. Twenty-five years after wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park, wolf packs are spreading into areas where their protection has been removed by the American administration. Without that protection, what is the future for wolves where many people resent their presence? In On the Trail of Wolves, Philippa recounts her adventures living among the grizzlies, elk, and wolves in her new home and chronicles her journeys further from home to talk to conservationists, rangers, hunters, and ranch owners to investigate when and why opinions on wolves became so polarised.
