California Wolf Restoration: A Look Back, Today and the Future.tinyurl.com/5n9yc727Back in 2000, I wrote a piece for California Wild about the prospects for wolf restoration in the state. At that time, there had not been any wolves reported in the Golden State in decades. Nevertheless, I felt the state could easily support a wolf population.In my article, I pretended that it was 2020, and I am sitting on a mountaintop in the Marble Mountains, hearing a wolf howl. It is interesting to reread the article and see that most of the predictions have been realized. ... See MoreSee Less

A range rider’s passion for wolves shows up in his worktinyurl.com/45h944dtDaniel Curry is a range rider in the state of Washington, serving as a buffer between wolves and cows and wolves and ranchers. He is also the star of a short film that is making the rounds in the U.S. West.He was in Carbondale on Nov. 21 to screen the film. We sat down with Curry to talk about his work. Here's an excerpt from the conversation:I’ve worked with wolves for a little over 22 years now. And when I was 30, I read an article in a local paper for the city of Spokane. And what I read in that article was really disturbing. The rancher lost cows. The wolves lost their lives for eating those cows. And as taxpayers, we paid an exorbitant amount of money to have that happen.By 'have that happen,' I mean lethal removal of that pack. So at that time I was working in a sanctuary for wolves. It's a world-renowned sanctuary. So I was really passionate about wolves. I really value animals. And I saw these animals suffering at the hands of our own state agency and thought that there's got to be some way to improve that situation. When everybody's losing, there's room for improvement, obviously.So I moved up to Washington, in the corner of northeast Washington, to help in any way I could. And eventually I read about range riding from a Canadian paper. I thought that I could utilize my wolf behavior knowledge and my skills with wolves coupled with my knowledge of horseback riding and cattle behavior, put those together and offer some kind of service to the community, both wildlife and the people of Washington state to go beyond coexistence.I don't really like that term 'co-existence.' I like 'co-thriving.' I think co-existence is a very subpar way to live. We're just barely existing with each other on the planet. ... See MoreSee Less
