| Summary |
"Wolf and Coyote Trapping: An Up-to-Date Wolf Hunter's Guide" by A. R. Harding is a practical guide on hunting and trapping wolves and coyotes, written in the early 20th century. This work serves as an instructional manual for experienced hunters, detailing various methods of trapping these animals while also providing insights into their habits and behaviors. The guide aims to equip readers with the knowledge necessary to effectively manage and reduce the populations of these predatory animals that pose threats to livestock. The beginning of the book introduces the severity of the problem posed by wolves and coyotes, particularly their depredations on farms and ranches, creating significant economic losses for landowners. Harding emphasizes the cunning nature of these animals and the various strategies employed by hunters, including trapping, shooting, and use of poison. He outlines different species of wolves found across North America, their appearances, geographic distribution, and breeding habits, establishing a foundation for the detailed methods and insights that follow in the subsequent chapters.
