Cindy, a doctoral student of Laura and J.J.’s, is doing an experiment which attempts to link human minds with animal minds through hypnosis. It succeeds with Rex, who mind-links with a wolf in the wild, seeing what it sees and feeling what it feels as it kills a rabbit. Rex discovers he enjoys this vicarious killing and begins controlling the wolf’s actions to attack larger prey – including Cindy when she threatens to stop the experiment. J.J., playing on Rex’s hypnotic suggestibility, manages to loosen Rex’s control over the wolf – which turns against its telepathic “master” and kills him.
