In the Temple of Wolves: A Winter’s Immersion in Wild Yellowstone Audiobook (Free)

When Rick Lamplugh reports for work at the historic Lamar Buffalo Ranch on New Year’s Eve, he has one goal: to learn as much as possible on the subject of the ecology from the Lamar Valley and how wolves fit in. He has three frigid weeks to explore on skis and snowshoes, to see with all his senses, and to pay attention to and talk to experts.

Lamplugh’s writing takes you with him seeing that he watches winter-hungry elk and bison migrate towards the Lamar Valley to graze. As wolves, coyotes, and hill lions stalk the grazers while eagles, ravens, and magpies wait to scavenge. As the snowy backdrop brings this saga of death and lifestyle into sharp concentrate and makes it unforgettable.

A literary mixture of details and feelings, In the Temple of Wolves celebrates nature’s stark beauty as well as the importance of wolves, while uncovering Lamplugh’s inner battles with his personal human nature.
