EPISODE 06: "Wolves Among Stones at Dusk" REDUX

The Mexican Gray wolf is among the rarest of North American wolf species. Few humans have seen them, fewer still have heard them growl, and far fewer have heard the pangs of hunger from the stomach of one.
One old man, seated on the cliff of an Arizona mesa, could possibly lay claim to all three of these feats if only he could be bothered to pay attention. He is a puzzle that most of the local wolves have given up on--save for one. The strange, silent, unmoving, and seemingly invulnerable old man makes for the ultimate unattainable prey, as the wolf's own teeth (chipped from previous attempts) are a constant reminder.
When more men arrive at the mesa, the wolf's frustration and hunger give way to hope--if only he can survive against these two-legged predators, intent on harming one of their own.
This podcast adapts the short story "Wolves Among Stones At Dusk" found in the collection A Consternation of Monsters, available in print, ebook, and audiobook formats.
