Wild Animals I Have Known

Wild Animals I Have Known, published in 1898 by naturalist Ernest Thompson Seton, is a pioneering work in the genre of realistic wild-animal fiction. This collection of short stories features notable entries like 'Lobo the King of Currumpaw,' which reflects Seton's experiences hunting wolves in the southwestern United States. The book is significant for portraying animals, particularly predators, as compassionate and individualistic, challenging the negative stereotypes often found in literature of the time.
