      About This Book

      Ernest Thompson Seton, a naturalist and artist, wrote a collection of short tales titled "Wild Animals I Have Known". The chapters of the book cover the behavior and characteristics of several wild animals, such as wolves, grizzly bears, and coyotes. The most well-known chapter in the book is "Lobo, the King of Currumpaw," which is about a mythical wolf and the rancher who hunted him. Additional tales include the bond between a wild horse and a Native American man in "The Pacing Mustang" and "The Springfield Fox," which portrays the ingenuity of a fox who outwits pursuers. Animal behavior is vividly described in Seton's work, and he often depicts animals in anthropomorphic ways that give them rich feelings and personalities. Seton stresses the need of appreciating and preserving wild creatures and their habitats throughout the whole book. The famous piece of nature literature "Wild Creatures I Have Known" has influenced many readers to value and preserve the natural world.
