In pre-modern Japan, wolves were worshipped as sacred; with the spread of rabies in the 18th century, they became feared and hunted; by 1905 wolves had disappeared from the country. This book examines how and why wolves became extinct in Japan, and the changing attitudes toward nature that are implied.
