OT, Somewhat: Wolf info
In article m,
says...
What an overwrought piece of melodrama. A wolf pack can kick
the **** out of a dog pack. Well, helllllllloooooooo !!
Pets are killed by wolves in northern Minnesota all the time
and I can't ever remember reading a sob story like this one
in any of the Minnesota papers.
Indeed. You only have to drive about 4 hours north of my house
to get into wolf country in Manitoba and Saskatchewan, and folks
manage to get along ok with them up there. Big game populations
are thriving well enough that hunters fly in from all over for
chance to hunt there.
In fact, wolves seem to have re-colonized ND, and I think I might
have seen one. At the time I thought it was a very big coyote
("Holy ****, that's a huge coyote," were my exact words) but later
I read that biologists have confirmed that several packs of wolves
are living and breeding in western ND, so now I wonder if it was
actually a wolf.
Whatever it was, my dogs and I survived ok,
Kevin
