Wolves

This showed up in my Facebook feed... shared by a friend who reshared it from somewhere else. Seems legit, but I don't believe everything I see on the internet.

Anyone here know?



Obvious excellent object lesson is obvious... just wondered if the underlying claim about wolves is true.

My question is....what animal would threaten or attack a wolf pack? They are near the top of the food chain. I have had experience with wolves in my post high school years and besides man they don't have too many threats.

I think the red circle would be Donald, Ivanka and Jared. Secret Service in the yellow and green. Back of the pack/last to know is Spicer.

Btw, don't trust FB or Twitter for info. Someone posted that Clint Eastwood died the other night because they saw it on a FB feed or Twitter.

This is the story behind the picture. Wolf Pack Behavior

I've watched some Yellowstone specials on tv and some wolf packs can exceed a dozen or so members. Fascinating creatures and a vital role in the health of an eco system.

His ONLY back sliding response was to go passive aggressive on you............

I got a rare treat this past March where I got to watch this lone wolf hunt some Elk in Yellowstone while we were on a snowcat tour.

Tour guide said in his 17 years he has never seen an event like that. I think it was staged and the animals are on the payroll.

It is really sad what happened to the internet. It is full of crap these days. I recall the times where it took a minimum IQ to go online or join a mailing list. It was much nicer.

Now the formerly open WWW is controlled largely by large corporations, the anonymity is gone and the commercials and targeted ads are doing the rest ...

I BS filter goes off anytime I see a story like the one in the original post. For the long time email users you will remember there was a round robin of emails that people would forward on. 99.999% of them were just silly BS and almost always just funny wrong. It was fake news before the term was coined.

I would almost get ill when I saw the line "Forward this to 25 people and you computer will show something so funny your head will roll off" or some idiotic statement. Or Bill Gates will send you a dime for every email you send on. Thankfully most of that has stopped.

My favorite in recent times was the one about Mars being closer that ever before. It was going to loom in the sky larger than the moon!
