Celebrating Yellowstone on National Wolf Awareness Week
National WolfWatcher Coalition‘s co-president Dave Hornoff is today’s guest blogger on Defenders of Wildlife’s Wolf Awareness Week blog series! Dave shares some highlights from his years of wolf-watching in Yellowstone National Park and his perspective on the controversial wolf hunts in Idaho and Montana. If you get a chance to visit Yellowstone, look for Dave. He has a knack for finding the Parks’ diva wolf – “gray wolf 06,” and Dave is easy to spot. Just look for the fellow with impeccable fashion sense!
If you need a taste of Yellowstone this weekend, please join us for a special program this Saturday at 11AM for- “Wolves of Yellowstone.” The WCC hosted some fantastic Yellowstone adventures last season and we’re eager to share our insights about wolf reintroduction, the beneficial ecological effect wolves have had on our nation’s first national park, and the debate that surrounds this misunderstood predator in the West.
