Today we’re interviewing Nancy Castaldo, author of THE WOLVES AND MOOSE OF ISLE ROYALE: Restoring an Island Ecosystem. “Stimulating reading for young naturalists and eco-activists,” says Kirkus. Mary Kay Carson: How did you come to write The Wolves and Moose of Isle Royale? Nancy Castaldo: This is a book project that began decades ago in my college ecology class. That is where I first heard of the important predator/prey study on Isle Royale. I was intrigued by this long study and have followed it ever since. When I found out that wolves might be released on the island I started to formulate the book project. MKC: Care to share a favorite research moment from your time on Isle Royale?  Nancy: Spending time on the island was wonderful. I truly can understand why so many people return to the park after visiting.
