Contact Cable Ready Corporation attention Gary Lico . For more than two decades a battle has been raging in the American Northwest. Biologists and environmentalists believe the gray wolf populations help maintain a healthy ecosystem.
Ranchers believe the wolf is the scourge of the earth.
They fear the wolf populations threaten their livestock and ruin their businesses. The battle to return the gray wolf to the Northwest is the most protracted struggle in the history of our nation's Endangered Species Act. In January of 1995 thirty gray wolves were captured in Canada then released in Yellowstone National Park and the Frank Church Wilderness in Idaho. Return of the Gray Wolf is the story of passionate scientists and ranchers as they tackle a compelling environmental issue. Dr. Mark Johnson is a veterinarian at Yellowstone National Park and heads the wolf recovery team.
