Description

Alaska’s wolves lost their fiercest advocate, Gordon Haber, when his research plane crashed in Denali National Park in 2009. Passionate, tenacious, and now and again brash, Haber, a former hockey player and park ranger, devoted his life to Denali’s wolves.

He weathered brutal temperatures within the wild to document the wolves and provided exceptional insights into wolf behavior. Haber’s writings and photographs reveal an astonishing degree of cooperation between wolf members of the family as they hunt, raise pups, and play, social behaviors and traditions prior to now unknown. With the wolves vulnerable to being destroyed by hunting and trapping, his studies advocated for a balanced method to wolf management. His fieldwork registered as some of the longest studies in flora and fauna science and had a lasting affect on wolf policies.

Haber’s field notes, his extensive journals, and stories from friends all come together in Among Wolves to show much about both the wolves he studied and the researcher himself. Wolves continue to fascinate and polarize people, and Haber’s work continues to resonate.
