Back From The Brink: "Wolf Nation"

Public Domain

Wolves came a long way in a human lifetime.  In Oregon, the last bounty for killing a wild wolf was paid out in 1947. 

60+ years later, OR-7 captured the attention of the state and nation, as the first wolf known to be living free west of the Cascades since the time of extermination. 

OR-7 is one of the key characters in Brenda Peterson's book .  Peterson weaves ecology and ancient lore together in her work; she visits with highlights.
