[Cdt-l] New Mexico Wolves

[Ken Powers]

I agree with Ginny. The wolves are definitely a part of the lore of the
West! And worth preserving.

We have heard wolf cries in the Southwest a few times. We were really close
once (south of Needles in Utah) and the howl made the hair on the back of
my neck rise! Another time, in southern Idaho, a wolf was chasing a deer
and nearly ran into us. Experiences we treasure.
