Awesome birthday gift
One of the gifts I got for my birthday on Saturday was a moonlight walking tour of a local wolf sanctuary that I didn't even know existed. I have loved wolves for as long as I can remember. I have numerous (non-cheesy) decorations and figurines and even have a large tattoo on my upper right arm.
Hopefully I will have a few photos to share. I have to take them early because one of the girls I contacted said to avoid the flash. Here is the link for anyone interested. http://www.wolfsancpa.com/

How very cool.
Did you give the ![]() ![]() Or was this a non-bacon outing?

Actually, the outing will not occur until this Saturday night. I was unclear on that...sorry. I am fairly certain it will be a non-bacon outing. I don't feel like being a moonlight snack.

Just don't walk around Lititz with raw meat in your pockets and you should be OK Bruce.

It'd be a great way to go though. When I die, I want to be eaten by wolves. Give back to the earth...

Lions, Tigers, Bears, will kill you first, then eat you. Wolves will only hurt you enough so you can't get away, while they munch.

I want to be eaten by Matt Damon. My guess is you have a better shot though.

So what is the goal of the sanctuary in Pennsylvania for those wolves ?
Just the fact that this facility even exists would drive some Oregon hunters nuts. Wolves are being released into the wild in Montana and Idaho, and are slowly making their way into eastern and central Oregon. They are no longer on the federal endangered/protected (?) lists, but Oregon law still has them on the State's protected list. Oregon's Dept of Fish and Wildlife has set up a program maximum of 2 breeding pairs in each of 8 areas of the state, and hunters are acting as if there's a wolf behind every tree. Hunters are concerned over the loss of deer and elk, which are actually decreasing in substantial numbers. (any number of causes) Another predator of concern to hunters is the cougar/mountain lion which is increasing in numbers, probably because they can no longer be hunted with hounds in Oregon (as result of a state-wide public referendum about 6 years ago). |
