Description

This practical guide walks listeners through the world of wolf and coyote hunting as it was understood in the early 1900s, offering a clear picture of the animals’ habits, habitats, and the regional varieties that roam North America’s plains, forests, and deserts. Detailed descriptions of the timber wolf, prairie wolf, and their many color forms help set the stage for understanding why these predators have long been a concern for farmers and ranchers.

The core of the audio experience is a step‑by‑step look at the most successful trapping techniques of the era. Listeners will hear about everything from scent‑bait setups and stone‑weight traps to the design of the Newhouse wolf trap, illustrated with vivid sketches of tracks, dens, and captured specimens. Contributions from seasoned “wolfers” and government bulletins add real‑world insight into effective field practices.

Beyond the mechanics, the narrative touches on the economic forces that kept wolf and coyote control a priority—bounties, pelts, and the ongoing battle between wildlife and agriculture. It offers a fascinating snapshot of frontier wildlife management, making it an engaging listen for anyone curious about historic hunting methods or the ecology of these clever canids.
