Nothing about Halo2-Something about Wolves.
I saw my first wild wolf a few miles from home two weeks ago-Just two seconds as it leaped off of a high snowy bank and leaped onto the other and out. It was night so it was just at the edge of my low beams. It was a very light grey color.
I was just delighted.
They have been coming into our area more and more in the last 7-8 years. My adult boys have seen them as they are out in the bush more and others see them fairly often in our sparsely populated area.
There is a small "wolf centre" a few miles away where they keep a few in a big wooded compound but after being there once i won't go again. If it isn't out in the wilderness I just feel badly.The people who run it are knowledgable and take one or more to the schools etc and do talks for tourists there.
Your son would enjoy it though.
Right now I happen to be reading Shadow Mountain" by Renee Askins. She is a wildlife biologist who words on introducing wolves into Yellowstone Park (among other projects), A good read.
We unschool our twin ggd,s in the East Kootenays, of BC Canada. between Banff National Park and Yoho and glacier Nat. Park.
Hope your son gets to see a wolf in the wild someday-it is a rare privelage.

----- Original Message ----- If anyone is interested in wolves, we found an interesting site:
International Wolf Center www.wolf.org very cool, it has 3 cameras that
they refresh every minute to see the wolves on the compound. We adopted one
of the older wolves, so our son is very excited about that. All I know about
the facility is what is on the website.
