Lobo, Rag and Vixen Being The Personal Histories Of Lobo, Redruff, Raggylug & Vixen

These tales bring the hidden lives of wild animals into clear focus, translating their sounds, scents and gestures into a language we can understand. Set against the sweeping mesas and flowing rivers of northern New Mexico, the story follows Lobo, an enormous gray wolf who has come to dominate the Currumpaw valley. His deep, resonant howl warns ranchers of impending loss, and his reputation spreads far beyond the open range.

Lobo leads a small but formidable pack—Blanca, a striking white female, a swift yellow wolf, and a few other imposing members—each known for their strength and cunning. They spare only the finest young cattle, leaving seasoned cows untouched, and even indulge in reckless raids on sheep for sport. Despite countless traps, poisons and relentless hunts, the pack endures, embodying the relentless struggle between predator and the men who seek to protect their herds.
