December 23, 2012. Merry Christmas to all. Below is a great picture slide show set to music, by Jimmy Jones. It is a tribute to the special “06 female”, a wolf that spent most of her time in Yellowstone National Park, but was shot near the park boundary a couple of weeks ago. Hint: click on the top right “slideshow” to hear the musical tribute to a special wolf.
December 14, 2012. Don’t bestow “Rock Star” Status on Yellowstone wolves. An interesting and well written article that basically says that all wolves should be cherished in the Yellowstone area, not just certain individuals with particular charm. While I do agree with the author’s premises, I also believe that certain individuals of any species will always be noteworthy and I (as a scientist) understand that certain individual animals, such as Yellowstone wolf “06 female”, will particularly affect people due to the wolf’s uniqueness.

Killing of wolves from Yellowstone outside park triggers outcry.
November 15, 2012. Seven Yellowstone National Park wolves killed in hunts in Montana and Wyoming on the park’s borders. What a national travesty (or tragedy should I say) that officials in those 2 states prefer to side with the minority of the population that hunts wolves (who are a minority of hunters) rather than the citizens of the U.S. who own the wildlife. A disgrace but not surprising knowing the inner workings of state fish and game departments.
August 25, 2012. Will gray wolf success story become a conservation tragedy? This is an important article from former US Fish and Wildlife under the Clinton administration. Unfortunately, Bush and Obama have catered to extremist groups in allowing virtual slaughters of wolves immediately after coming off the Endangered Species Act. This is unprecedented and I hope, eventually leads to National Canid Protection Act (or something titled similarly). Here is a great quote: “No other native species is managed to a biological minimum”.
26 March 2012. Major Yellowstone Herd keeps declining. This is the Northern Range herd. I am noticing that I am seeing less and less elk on my trips, although we always still do see plenty. I just returned from a trip March 13-20 and saw only large herds in the distance, none close to the road like all other past trips. Just anecdotal on my end, but strange. Update: October 2012: I recently returned from my 14th trip and saw plenty of elk. There are still lots of elk around even if their numbers aren’t close to the mid-1990s.
