| IMG_5804.jpg | 5804 Last Howl of The Hayden White WolfThis incredible white wolf will be found dying of wounds one week from this pose. I wonder if the ugly non-functioning radio collar, around her neck, hindered this beautiful animal as she fought for her life. One third of the wolves in Yellowstone have these collars. Yellowstone is supposed to be a place where animals live wild and free. Radio collars are ugly, intrusive devices placed on these beautiful animals after they have been chased to exhaustion by helicopters, then darted and drugged by over- zealous park biologists. It is time to ban these practices in all National Parks. |
