Two poems, by Linda Hogan and Alberto Ros, follow wolves, jackrabbits, and other animals across the harsh Great Plains and Sonoran Desert. Both poets join wildlife biologist Jeff Corwin, director Chris Eyre, Native American scholars Philip Deloria and Stephanie Fitzgerald, and students from New Mexico to discuss how the poems call back difficult histories of human migration in the American west.
