 my travels, so they will have a feast on the reindeer herd that belongs to this village. Last year they killed over one thousand reindeer and more during the summer. Some of the deer have only the tongue eaten out. The wolves are smart as can be, as they just stay out of rife range. They do most of their killing at night, and they stay in bands. l counted one band of over l8 wolves with my glasses. If some thing is not done to kill off the wolves, there will be few rein deer left in a few years, with the small number that is killed-only two woves were killed here last winter. It is my opinion that a lot of the so-called wolves are nothing but lot of wild dogs that got away from their mas ters years ago, on account of SC many back ones, and they got bred into the wolf family. Game wardens would do well to look into this matter right away.
