چکیده	Deforestation has been one of the most detrimental consequences of European anthropocentrism in North America. European settlers who immigrated to North America found themselves in a bountiful paradise with infinite untrammeled natural resources that could be utilized to make a fortune. Likewise, they inflicted irretrievable damages on nature upon the onset of their settlement in this continent. Investigating Louis Owens’ Wolfsong from an ecocritical standpoint, this article seeks to highlight the massive deforestation conducted by the white Americans in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. As a qualitative, research-based study, this article commences with theoretical assumptions and subsequently focuses on the representations of the critical concepts in Wolfsong. It shall be indicated that the perspective held by the White Americans towards the environment drastically collides with that of the indigenes. More exactly, the argument of this paper follows the distinction between the treatment of nature by the Euro-Americans and Native Americans in Wolfsong.
