The Wild World of Buck Bray – Book Three The Wolves of Slough Creek

written by Judy Young

Buck heard the whirring sound again, this time in front of him. He jerked his head around to face forward. A strange looking, bright orange, plastic thing, smaller than his palm, hovered in the air a few yards away, just a little higher than his head. It looked like a four-legged spider with tiny helicopter blades spinning above each leg. A single eye in the middle of its body seemed to stare at him.
Cool, thought Buck. A drone!

Buck Bray and Toni Shoop, along with the rest of The Wild World of Buck Bray TV crew, head to Yellowstone National Park to not only film an episode about its famous geysers and hot springs, but also learn more about the park’s gray wolf restoration program. When Buck narrowly escapes injury from a herd of stampeding bison, he is almost certain the animals were agitated by a drone. But, flying drones in a national park is illegal! Who was flying it? And, why? Once Buck and Toni start to investigate, they find out that drones aren’t the only problem. And, gray wolves aren’t the only top predator lurking in Yellowstone, either!
