Perhaps they should shoot some wolves if they're the problem. -- John H. Hope you're having a great day! |

Sort of like entrepreneurship in reverse. Want to make a mole hill out of a mountain? Harry can help. |

Them damm wolves were probably crossbred with Nova Scotiaites. I'll bet they don't know how to back up without a trim gauge either. |

Apparently, not so dumb: "The Alberta government has been killing an average of 100 wolves a year for 8 years to protect the caribou ..." -- John H. Hope you're having a great day! |
