review 1: When I first heard about this story and the book about it, I was skeptical. Although I did not doubt the validity of story about a wolf inhabiting the outskirts an Alaskan City, I was wary of a cutesy, sentimental, and uninformative read. Boy was I wrong!Jans is an excellent writer with a strong background in wolf biology, including years of field experience. In addition, he is a fine photographer. There is much content about wolf behavior and the complex management issues that arise when an apex predator inhabits the fringe of a mid-sized city. Best of all, there are fascinating, close encounters between Romeo the wolf, people and their pet dogs.The folklore, the love, the hate, and the myriad ways of interacting with this wild creature all came to the fore during t... morehe several years that Romeo lived on the outskirts of Juneau, Alaska. Although Romeo was a remarkably tolerant and adept survivor in the midst of humans and their pets, this story is likely to be repeated in a less elegant manner in cities throughout the U.S. This is a beautiful, incredible and sad story worth telling. Jans told it well.
review 2: I have to make this review short as I am so angry. This is a beautiful story of a most precious black beauty wolf that had a wonderful bond with humans dogs. He frolicked and played with them and went on walks with them and their humans. He was loved by many with exceptions of those few wolf hating jerks around. I would loved to have seen him. I was touched by the woman with cancer who's family would bring her out to see him. She loved her time seeing him. I have a great love for Harry and his dog who were best friends with him and tried to protect him. But, as we all know would happen a damn jerk hunter killed him. Him and his friend snuck out and did it. All I have left to say is there is a special place in hell for people that desroy all beautiful things whether it be animal or human. Thank you for sharing Romeo's story. I also love he got a memorial made for him. It says ROMEO 2003-2009 THE SPIRIT OF JUNEAU'S FRIENDLY BLACK WOLF LIVES ON IN THIS WILD PLACE. less
