About this listen

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. Never Cry Wolf was made into a major motion picture by Walt Disney Productions.

loved it, couldn't put it down! very educational in regards to wolves, which is nice to not have a biased viewpoint on things.

Would you listen to Mowat: Never Cry Wolf again? Why?

Of course!

Who was your favorite character and why?

In the Movie and book it is the main character because it is his sense of humor that brings it all to life.

Have you listened to any of Adam Sims’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Good enough.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Not like the Movie.

Any additional comments?

The Movie has been one of my top favorites and shared enthusiastically with friends. The Movie brought my emotions to a peek from the get go. I will have to listen to the book again to get a handle on it. The first time I listened I was working around the house and my Kindle Fire is hard to hear. Me against Myself because that is my way and the story takes me there.

Liked the bravery and curiosity of science. Disliked the behavior of men. I canonly hope we have evolved since them.

Adventure, beauty and sadness. Man is the lowest animal.

I enjoyed the story line involving the study of the nature of wolf and their habitat. I will recommend this book on Goodreads and my friends. The reading of Never Cry Wolf by Adam Sims made the story most believable. I gave the 5 star rating due to all of the above reasons.

I did not like it at first but this book grew on me.
The ending was a bit vague though.

Nice

I really appreciated this story and it's mindfulness of humankind's ignorance to other occupants of this planet.
I wish more reads like this were mandatory before owning a gun

Sadly, the environmental mismanagement of the Canadian arctic is clearly and poiniently illustrated in the humorous and humanly told story. Farley Mowat is as exacting in his detail as he is humble in his conclusions. A beautiful tale of the irreplaceable wilderness.

Everything about this book was far better than I could have ever hoped for. At first I bought this book out of my own love for wolves and was hoping to educate myself further. What I got instead was everything I was looking for and an witty and entertaining novel that had me laughing out loud and listening with full attention enraptured by this man's story.

I say at the top that this book is for wolf lover's but that's not wholly accurate. this book is for anyone and everyone. It is meant to educate the masses about the true nature of wolves and dissuade people from believing all the vicious lies spread by the public fear these magnificent animals.

I do have to say that in many case mowat had been extremely lucky. It is true that wolves are generally a very peaceful race but they are still predators. put a predator in a position that it feels threatened and they will defend themselves. However wolves do not ever go out of their way to attack people and should be treated with respect and dignity.

A must read for any wolf lovers!
