Ian McAllister has honoured the Coastal Wolves and the Great Bear Rainforest of British Columbia with his years of research, his books, and his amazing photography.  Supreme patience and devotion to the animals of the rainforest, threatened by development, tanker traffic, and logging.

These books are a treasure.

My articles on animal conservation and eco-tourism in B.C. can be found at http://www.suite101.com/ .  Links to research and web sites of interest are included for Pacific Coastal wolves and Mexican wolves, the most endangered of the Grey Wolves.

I took this photo early on a summer morning, summer of 2010, low tide on Maurelle Is., one of the Discovery Islands in British Columbia. 

Here is a book that has touched many womens' souls.  Clarissa Pinkola Estes embodies 'duende'......  read this book, learn to howl, and find your pack.

While in southern California recently I learned more about the plight of the Mexican Wolf, almost hunted to extinction, so I wrote an article for Suite101 about these wolves.  This Mexican Wolf lives at The Living Desert in southern California, part of a breeding program with the goal of re-establishing a healthy population in their original territory.
