I spoke to my father about it. As I have mentioned before, my bloodlines run into Star Valley.

He said that when his mother was growing up, there was a lot of fear of wolves. Due to the destruction they could wreak on very poor families that struggled every year.

He said that as a kid, when he visited Star Valley, wolves had been wiped out long before. They were not even a consideration. This would be in the 1950s.

....
We are not talking about starving families. We are talking about millionaire ranchers on federal land.

Times have changed. And the wolf is back, to stay.
