Samenvatting

Rectificatie/aanvulling (Illustratie-verantwoording) uit nr.2 toegevoegd aan pdf (laatste pagina) Wolves and Humans: Changes in a Relationship. Modern scholars studying the behavior of wolves, primarily in northern North America and Russia, paint a positive image of these animals and oppose preconceived notions about their habits. In particular, they are critical of assertions that wolves attack and eat human beings. On the other hand, historians are finding evidence to the contrary, based on documents dating from 1588 in Flanders. Thus, the relationship between humans and wolves should be viewed in a long-term perspective, changing as a result of change in societies. 6 Illustrations, 36 References. Adapted from the source document.
