Happy International Wolf Day!
Hope would like to debunk these myths:
-Wolves aren't responsible for livestock deaths; they're LESS than 1%
-Wolves don't attack us; they avoid us!
-Wolves don't kill for fun
-Wolves don't cause deer extinction
Help Hope spread the word!

of re-introducing wolves
to this demi-nation
of lambs and glaikit rams
and scraggy ewes,
(and – let’s face it –
hardly any shepherds left to care)…

Today, 13 August, is International Wolf Day
