Unleashing The Wolf Within

Posted by on November 18, 2007 in Dog & Wolf News / Issues.

I've heard a few reports now that members of the Boulder County K-9 Unit and a couple of people have seen two wolves running through the woods at night up in the mountains here. I wouldn't be surprised if there were- certain people like myself are waiting for more wolves to arrive from Yellowstone. Unfortunatly, our first arrival was hit by a car on a major highway through Colorado. Those that can make their escape through the hunters that sit and wait for them on the boundry lines of Yellowstone will be of the lucky few that have traveled far away from their original destination.
I feel, like a wolf that my original destination is ever changing and growing into something far, far away from where I started 12 years ago. The forests that I've lurked in at night, the stars that shed light on my back and the mud beneith my paws are like tests of my ability to survive in the outer limits far away from my den. I have managed to out smart predators, stalk my prey, raise five pups and now all this has led me to where I sit today.
I'm very excited to get closer everyday to the dream I have of being a voice our for fellow canid species. I hope everyone out there doesn't forget the millions of shelter animals that are sitting waiting to be adopted and not euthanized. I hope that all of you also don't forget about the wolf- our greatest teacher whom we have killed and prosecuted over the years based on fear, selfishness, money and fun.
