Hey Mike, you do realize white settlers were the reason elk went extinct in the first place, right? Overhunting and land fragmentation/destruction is what killed them off, NOT wolves.

Wolves need elk and elk need wolves, as has been the case for tens of thousands of years.]]></description>

Your elk population? Wow. 

Wolves were here first they coevolved with elk, one of their principal prey species. Perhaps you should learn a bit more about predator-prey dynamics before you publicly make such a selfish and inaccurate statement.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[A refreshingly different interpretation of one wolf’s story, and described with simplicity, the journey into a world where the familiar, the unknown, and uncertainty blend with natural instinct as his guide. This story is so lightly told that you could read this to your children. With pictures. 🕊️]]></description>
