Features: This book narrates the legends of several animals: the cottontail rabbit Ragweed, who uses wisdom to defeat his opponents and gain new life; the loyal little dog Bingo, who roams far and wide in life but never forgets to return to his former master's door upon death; the proud and untamed wild mustang, who refuses to bow to human greed and pursuit, even in death; the fate of the yellow dog Uri, who has tasted the bitterness of the world and been abandoned by his master, resulting in a twisted personality; the cunning yet affectionate, cruel yet kind mother fox, Winken; and the old wolf Rob, the king of the Craterlope, who represents sincerity, wisdom, courage, and strength. The protagonists in this book have diverse personalities and rich emotions, each with their own names, languages, worlds, and lives. Their vivid and noble heroic qualities are so compelling that even we deeply admire them. Their wisdom, courage, impulsiveness, and determination make anyone who loves life feel moved to tears. Wild Animals I Have Known is Seton's early work, which established his reputation as the "Father of Wildlife." It brings people compassion, understanding, tolerance, and thought, and few works since then can compare. These stories are rare classics for us today, living relatively peaceful and ordinary lives.
