Two different authors have two different ways of thinking and writing. Farley Mowat wrote "Observing Wolves" and Barry Lopez wrote, "Wolf Notes".

             Mowat experimented with his own territory markings. He wanted to see if the wolves would take notice of his territory and respect it, as humans do as well. He refers to having to drink a lot of tea to perform his experiment. In his conclusion he writes, "He [the wolf] made his mark with such economy t...
