George, I moved to New Mexico in 2011, and worked for the newspaper there. Where I lived is in the Mexican Gray Wolf recovery area. I have friends, ranchers, who are losing their livelihoods, in this mismanaged recovery program. Long story, but the goal is to remove cattle producers from their deeded land and grazing portions of public land. I have published a lot of articles about it. Google my name, Etta Pettijohn, and wolves. It is a travesty.
If they weren't sitting in meetings working on their sobriety the wolves could really be dangerous.
Good to hear from you.
I will search for : Etta Pettijohn, and wolves.

Yes. Out in WA state the feds wanted to plant grizxlies in the Cascades.
WA finally won that battle. But their MO is to put all the apex predators they can everywhere.
