Yellowstone Wolves

Post 1

The Beagle

Yo Guys, this is The Beagle. And being of canine descent (and having lived in Wyoming) I know that the wolves of Yellowstone have been big, bad guys!

The park officials had a plan a couple of years back to reintroduce the wolves into Yellowstone (they were conspicuous by their absence just then). Great idea...supported by all the media types and film stars including Andie MacDowell. So, they release the wolves.

Trouble is, wolves don't do boundaries and those cute little cousins of mine just didn't realise that they were supposed to stay right inside the boundaries of Yellowstone park.

They pootled around and spread all over - and found some real nice sources of food on local ranches. Like chickens and cats and even dogs. Rumour has it that the ate one of Andie MacDowell's dogs and she was so upset she moved out. However, I can't confirm that.

If you want to get up to date stuff about Yellowstone go to the Bozeman Daily Chronicle. It's a Montana newspaper and it's a riot. Buffalo make the front page lead as often as anything else. Makes a change... You can find them on a search engine.

Woof!
