It is funny to compare the (positive) reaction of this traveling wolf to who people in ID and WY would respond to this – or now in MT given the latest article above this one. It is funny who the voting demographics tend to be much more progressive than their neighbors in ID (well maybe not the ranchers in eastern OR but you get my point). Gee, is there a correlation to voting demographics and how they view wildlife. Seems so…
Perhaps a poor analogy, but the “usual” responders are comparable to those who relish telling youngsters there is no Santa Claus. Ironic, but the responders still believe in Little Red Riding Hood.
Wait… there is no Santa?!? Oh thanks a lot Immer….
😉
Sorry “who” should be “how” in 2 sections above.
