12-14 SS Cry Wolf

Independent film producer J.D. King, and his brother, Cody King created "Crying Wolf: Exposing the Wolf Reintroduction to Yellowstone National Park" and it is being welcomed and lauded by ranchers. of course wolf advocates are crying wolf themselves saying that the documentary is false and paints a satanic picture of this predator. I can't tell you how many hunters that I have talked to who have scratched their heads and said that ungulate populations had been decimated in their favorite hunting spots. Their unanimous conclusion is that it is wolves who are responsible. The film itself claims claims a Yellowstone elk herd has been reduced from 20,000 to 4,500 since wolves were reintroduced. that is not surprising when you listen to reasoning provided by primitive hunter and professional hunting guide Ted Fry: "The wolf thing is not just a joke. It really has changed things. You think when they introduced the wolf, which was about 1996, generations and generations of deer and elk had no main predator like that. They had mountain lions and they had bears but the wolves are a linage predator that hunts in packs and we had generations of elk that didn't know what those were so what a great time to be a wolf."
