E15: Lone Wolf - Walking The Fault Lines Of Europe - Adam Weymouth

In 2011, a wolf named Slavc set out from Slovenia, travelling through the Alps to Northern Italy, where he crossed paths with a female wolf in a region that had been without wolves for a century.

A decade later, more than a hundred wolves are back in the area, the result of their meeting.

In Lone Wolf, Weymouth walks Slavc's path, examining changes facing these wild corners of Europe, where re-wilding meets cultural preservation and climate change is reshaping lives.Adam Weymouth's work has been published in Granta, The Atlantic, The Observer and the BBC.

His first book, Kings of the Yukon, won the Sunday Times Young Writer of the Year Award, the Lonely Planet/Stanford's Adventure Travel Book of the Year and the Prix Paul Emile-Victoire.
