On a much more solemn and serious note.  I cannot turn my head without making a plea for these majestic and much needed animals.  Today I rec&#8217;d notice from the <a href=\"http:\/\/action.defenders.org\/site\/PageServer?pagename=savewolves_homepage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Defenders of Wildlife<\/a> that  the Bush\/Cheney Administration is stripping the vital federal protection for wolves in the Greater Yellowstone and Northern Rockies area.  This area and these animals hold a truly special place in my heart and under the existing management plans all but 300 wolves could be eliminated which would be a huge tragedy.  Please, if you are lucky enough to be able to make a donation for whatever you can afford, please <a href=\"http:\/\/action.defenders.org\/site\/R?i=-psQhkOMPlfZ99xUHYDjrg..\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">consider donating to help save our wolves<\/a>.  This often misunderstood creature has become a vital part to re-establishing the food chain balance in the area of its&#8217; reintroduction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(wow that sounds dirty and I don&#8217;t mean it to!
