"When I read Never Cry Wolf as a youth growing up in Calgary, it opened my mind to the wonders of Canada. An immigrant from Trinidad, my Canadian experience did not resemble the wild frontier that was so beautifully depicted by Farley Mowat. He was a free spirit and pioneer, and I was drawn to his mixture of irreverence and rebellion. To me, Never Cry Wolf is an unexpected love story about the misunderstood wolf; one that fundamentally changed the way people think about these complex creatures. Farley's story inspired the activist in me (a side I didn't even know I had) and it challenged me to dream about the remote landscapes of the country I now proudly call home."
