A highly ranked university in the Midwest seeking faculty in ethnic studies requests applicants with "specialization in humanities, behavioral, and social sciences, creative arts, creative writing, business, communication, law or medicine." A major Canadian university seeking a head for their Department of Native Studies suggests that "areas of cognate interest include Sociology, Political Studies, or Law." What seems curious to us is that the natural sciences are always left out of such lists. This is especially poignant when we remember that our ancestors typically defined their identities and traditions in terms of what they shared with the natural world and their surrounding environments (Lyons 1984; Deloria 1990,1992; Cajete 1994; Marshall 1995; Anderson 1996; Bas...

The relationship began as coevolutionary, with the species cooperating at times but also capable of functioning independently. This state of affairs dominated early stages of the relationship between the two species and may have persisted for 20,000 years or longer. In other parts of the world, for example, southern Asia, humans began to shape wolves into clearly domestic forms: animals phenotypically distinct from wolves, especially in body size. This latter process involves various aspects of the wolf gene pool being essentially divided, with many individuals staying true wolves while others changed in form, becoming what people now describe as “dogs” without losing their genetic links to their wolf ancestry or their ability to interbreed with wolves.

One result of this co-evolution is domestic dogs, which are the same species as wolves. This book explores these relationships through the perspective of Indigenous peoples, and discusses relationships between wolves and humans in the contemporary world.
