About this listen
The unlikely true story of a six-year friendship between a oddly gentle wild black wolf and the people and dogs of Juneau, Alaska
No stranger to wildlife, Nick Jans had lived in Alaska for nearly 30 years. But when one evening at twilight a lone black wolf ambled into view not far from his doorstep, Nick would finally come to know this mystical species - up close as never before.
A Wolf Called Romeo is the remarkable story of a wolf who returned again and again to interact with the people and dogs of Juneau, living on the edges of their community, engaging in an improbable, awe-inspiring interspecies dance and bringing the wild into sharp focus. At first, the people of Juneau were guarded, torn between shoot first, ask questions later instincts and curiosity. But as Romeo began to tag along with cross-country skiers on their daily jaunts, play fetch with local dogs, or simply lie near Nick and nap under the sun, they came to accept Romeo, and he them. For Nick, it was about trying to understand Romeo, then it was about winning his trust, and ultimately, it was about watching over him, for as long as he or anyone could.
Written with a deft hand and a searching heart, A Wolf Called Romeo is an unforgettable tale of a creature who defied nature and thus gave humans a chance to understand it a little more.

Story
Before men ruled the earth, there were wolves. Once abundant in North America, these majestic creatures were hunted to near extinction in the lower 48 states by the 1920s. But in recent decades, conservationists have brought wolves back to the Rockies, igniting a battle over the very soul of the West. With novelistic detail, Nate Blakeslee tells the gripping story of one of these wolves, O-Six, a charismatic alpha female named for the year of her birth.

What’s to be done about a jaywalking moose? A bear caught breaking and entering? A murderous tree? Three hundred years ago, animals that broke the law would be assigned legal representation and put on trial. These days, as New York Times best-selling author Mary Roach discovers, the answers are best found not in jurisprudence but in science: the curious science of human-wildlife conflict, a discipline at the crossroads of human behavior and wildlife biology.

More than half a century ago, the naturalist Farley Mowat accepted an assignment to investigate why wolves were killing Arctic caribou. Mowat’s account of the summer he lived in the frozen tundra alone – studying the wolf population and developing a deep affection for these wild creatures (who were no threat to caribou or man) – is today celebrated as a classic of nature writing, at once a tale of remarkable adventure and an indelible record of the myths and magic of wolves.

Polly, Annie, Elizabeth, Catherine, and Mary-Jane are famous for the same thing, though they never met. What they had in common was the year of their murders: 1888. The person responsible was never identified, but the character created by the press to fill that gap has become far more famous than any of these five women. For more than a century, newspapers have been keen to tell us that "the Ripper" preyed on prostitutes. Not only is this untrue, as historian Hallie Rubenhold has discovered, but it has prevented the real stories of these fascinating women from being told.

Story
Lyndsey was once a top handler in the Moscow Field Station, where she was known as the "human lie detector" and praised for recruiting some of the most senior Russian officials. But now, three Russian assets have been exposed - including one of her own - and the CIA is convinced there's a mole in the department. With years of work in question and lives on the line, Lyndsey is thrown back into life at the agency, this time tracing the steps of those closest to her.

Story
From his earliest work in the 1950s to today, Willie looks back at the songs that have defined his career, from his days of earning $50 each to his biggest hits, from his less well-known songs (but incredibly meaningful to him) to his concept albums. Along the way, he also shares the stories of his guitar Trigger, his family and “family,” as well as the artists he collaborated with, including Patsy Cline, Waylon Jennings, Ray Charles, Merle Haggard, Ray Price, Dolly Parton, and many others.

Sy Montgomery's popular 2011 Orion magazine piece, "Deep Intellect", about her friendship with a sensitive, sweet-natured octopus named Athena and the grief she felt at her death, went viral, indicating the widespread fascination with these mysterious, almost alien-like creatures. Since then Sy has practiced true immersion journalism, from New England aquarium tanks to the reefs of French Polynesia and the Gulf of Mexico, pursuing these wild, solitary shape-shifters.

Poignant story about an amazing wolf and peoples connection with him
This book is well, documented, researched, gripping and suspenseful and very emotionally moving. I was left with love for this exceptional wolf and admiration for those who befriended and sought to protect him.

Fantastic Author, Narrator, & Story
I am in awe of this audiobook experience. The author’s prose is outstanding. I have no idea how the Wolf remains so captivating while staying elusive in character throughout the story. Immortal Romeo. This book is a must for life’s journey!

Insider accounting of the story of Romeo
I appreciated Jans’ telling of Romeo’s story and his efforts to dispel the myths about American predators. One of our darkest acts as a nation is the efforts to eradicate apex predators (poisons, traps, biological warfare). The brutality is almost unimaginable. The book is also about the people (and dogs) involved with the wolf and I do appreciate Jans’ restraint in his own interactions. It is always a struggle to want to engage with wild animals, but to know it is to their detriment. As a nature and dog lover, the senseless loss of this unique creature is heartbreaking. If you enjoyed this book, I recommend The Rise of Wolf 8.

The Life of a BELOVED Family Member
This story came to life for me! My last name being WOLF, I have always cherished wolves, seeing them in the eyes of every dog I have been fortunate to share my life with. Dogs, as Romeo did, bring meaning, love, friendship to my life, enriching it beyond comprehension! Living in Pittsburgh, PA, having moved from the Lebanon/Lancaster area of PA in 2017, upon discovering the men responsible for taking the amazing life of one of God's "wild" creatures, the story took on a different connotation for me. In Lititz, Lancaster County, PA is the Wolf Sanctuary of PA, a "home" to many a Wolf! Ironic that a black Wolf in Alaska would lose his life to someone who came from an area where wolves are cared for! Though I will never travel to Alaska, or was fortunate enough to have shared Romeo's love/friendship, every time I look into the eyes of my dog, I will carry A Wolf Called Romeo with me always....

Why Romeo Matters
A great story that unfortunately one knows the ending will be tragic. I listened almost uninterrupted until I finished. Anyone who loves nature will enjoy. Post script Jeff Peacock died on May 11, 2015. A fitting end to this story. He was the Big Bad Wolf.

A new friend
After listening to Romeo’s story, I feel like I made a new friend. I wish I had lived in Alaska when he did. I’m grateful to the author for sharing this story.
