What to do with elk crossing the road in the wrong place? Or a bear caught in a break-in? Three hundred years ago, animals that broke the law were put on trial by appointing an official representative. Today, as the popular writer Mary Roach has found out, the answers are not to be found in the field of law, but in the field of science, a curious discipline that studies the conflict between man and animals.

Together with the reader, Roach literally follows forensic scientists investigating attacks by wild animals on humans, specialists in human and elephant conflicts, and a manager for working with bears. While talking about wildlife that violates human laws, Roach talks no less about humanity itself – and comes to the conclusion that when it comes to “problem” animals, the problem – and, incidentally, its solution – is often people.

Fascinating, witty, and humane, The Wool on End offers hope for the humane coexistence of species in an infinitely expanding human habitat.
