Snowflakes fall icy bright from the storm-gray sky, while a young female wolf travels through a land where everything is new.
She grew up far away in Canada.
Then, along with her mother, she was trapped by humans and taken from the wolf pack that was her family to this place—to Yellowstone.
First she was penned up with her mother and a male wolf, a stranger.
Her mother accepted him. She didn’t.
So when the pen was opened, the young female ran away alone.
Now she roams, like a castaway, in a land that is pure unknown.
