Muzzle wolf official?
It looks like Mitch King, regional director for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is trying to undo a bit of damage he did recently because it certainly sounded like they were trying to muzzle Ed Bangs as the Service was trying to work out a deal with Wyoming, and a Wyoming state representative was telling them to shut Bangs up. The earlier article reported the kind of quotes that just might get a federal judge’s attention should there be a lawsuit.
Here is the latest as written by Whitney Royster of the Casper Star Tribune. Muzzle wolf official?

This is unrelated to this tag but I wonder how the Artic wolves of Ellesmere Island are doing. According to an article I just read the island has lost most of its ice cover since 1906 and a 25 square mile block of ice just broke off of it.
