title = "Human predation and animal sociality: the transformational agency of {\textquoteleft}wolf people{\textquoteright} in Mongolia",
abstract = "This chapter examines the recent proliferation of {\textquoteleft}wolf people{\textquoteright} following the advent of the Mongolian gold rush. By analysing ethnographic and historical material on the position of wolves in Mongolian cosmology, I demonstrate how these beings call into question the relationship between animality and humanity. Concealed in human bodies and destined to a solitary life of greed, {\textquoteleft}wolf people{\textquoteright} challenge the human potential for peaceful and productive living. Demonstrating the importance of moving away from a human-centred perspective on morality, I argue that relations between humans and animals reveal how personhood is a matter of persuasion.",
