I grew up howling at wolves in northern Minnesota and now live in central Idaho and I LOVED this podcast. I had no idea the huge roll Idaho and the Nez Perce Tribe played in wolf reintroduction. I loved the local history lesson! One critique- I’d have preferred if the producers had included that many ranchers graze on public lands for practically free. This is important for understanding the wolf-livestock conflict since these lands are owned by the American people and not the ranchers.

I’m a nine year old and it made me cry wolves are my favorite animal and I just can’t bear to hear about them being tortured!
