Cool.  Thanks to both you and Chris S.

Not denying these incidents occur...Lord knows, in Alaska, Montana, Utah 
even, enough people have had close calls and actual run-ins.  However, it 
was MAN who took them away and MAN who re-introduced them to the area and 
now its MAN who is complaining because the wolf is just doing what comes 
naturally - hunting.  If we would just learn to leave nature alone, it'd 
take care of itself rather well.  But nnnoooooooo!  We have to continually 
mess with it and say "we know better" and then p**s and moan about it when 
our plans back-fire.

Sheesh!

I look forward to seeing your results.
