摘要

Farley Mowat, a Canadian literary icon and environmentalist known for books revolving around nature and humans' interactions with the wild, died Tuesday at age 92. Farley wrote 45 books and sold 17 million copies translated into 52 languages. The books include 1963's "Never Cry Wolf," which increased sympathy for the animal many Canadians at the time wanted exterminated. It was later made into a Disney movie.
