| Summary | "Lobo, Rag, and Vixen" by Ernest Thompson Seton is a collection of animal stories written in the early 20th century. The book presents the personal histories of several animals, including a wolf named Lobo, a rabbit named Raggylug, and a partridge named Vixen, showcasing their lives and struggles in the wild. Each story is crafted to demonstrate the intricate relationships between the animals and their environment, portraying their challenges with both predators and human hunters. The beginning of the book introduces Lobo, the infamous wolf terrorizing the Currumpaw region of New Mexico. The narrative describes his formidable presence among cattle ranchers, illustrating his cunning and power as he leads a small but fearsome pack of wolves that successfully elude hunters. Seton details the awe and fear Lobo evokes in the ranching community, along with the strategic failures of various hunters who attempt to capture or kill him. Simultaneously, the opening hints at the unique lifestyles of other animals like Raggylug, the young cottontail rabbit learning survival lessons from his mother in Olifant's swamp. This multifaceted introduction sets the stage for an exploration of the lives of these characters against the backdrop of nature's harsh realities and the interplay between predator and prey.
