__ Never Cry Wolf Essay __

The novel I read was __Never Cry Wolf__, and the author the book is Farley Mowat. Farley Mowat is the main character in this novel. This novel takes place in the arctic. Farley Mowat is sent up to the arctic to find out why the caribou population is going down. The point I would like to state is that, Humans and animals are connected because we are very similar.

In chapter 7 page 49, Farley is in his canoe when he saw a lot of caribou but no wolves. On page 51 Farley realizes that the government was lying. Right after that Farley says “I had made my decision that, from this hour onward, I would go opened-minded into the lupine world and learn to see and know the wolves, not for what they were supposed to be, but for what they actually were” on Page 52. The wolves have a family just like humans; they usually have two parents and kids.**this last sentence does not fit with your quotation, telling the reader that Mowat discovered that there were more similarities because he decided to look at things with an open mind would have connected your thoughts and your quote into a paragraph that proves a point.**

The alpha wolf went out and marked most the territory for the family. The alpha wolf didn’t let anything get to close to the den. The mother wolf went out and hunted food for the pups and the alpha male just stayed at the den. When there were no caribou around the wolves just ate mice. Mowat ate mice for the time he was in the arctic.**Why did Mowat do this? Essentially are you trying to say that we can survice on the same things? How are wolf families and human families similar?**

Ootek told Mowat an old story that the caribou were sick and that the wolves fixed the problem by hunting the sick caribou, so the humans could have the good caribou. Ootek also told Mowat that the wolves and the humans communicate with each other. The wolves tell the humans if there is going to be good caribou hunting or not. **Do both humans and animals have ways of communicating? Are humans and animals both living so they have a way of communicating together?**

Farley Mowat really got to like the wolves once he found out that the wolves weren’t savages. When his old friends shot and killed Angie and George, Mowat was very mad at them because the wolves didn’t do anything to hurt the humans. Mowat left the arctic with the memory of the connection with the wolves and humans on his mind. **Good concluding sentence but I think that you could have explained yourself a bit more and uses more relevant examples to support what you are saying given the amount of time you had to complete this assignment.**
