"Little Red Riding Hood" story.

I've heard so many conflicting stories about wolves that I don't know what to believe.....except that they're opportunists.

Add to the list wild dogs, wild cats, bears...... coyotes, raccoons and any other varmint with teeth.

In Central Europe and Central Asia, wolves prowled towns in winter waiting for someone to die and be buried in a shallow grave for a quick snack. Kids were munchable too. Happened during wars too. They've been long gone in America so people forget and yearn for the days of pristine forests and frolicking wildlife, happily scavenging carcasses and killing each other off to survive.

We climbed mountains and hiked trails all over the state for decades with no problems.

With the recent hunting season eliminations and restrictions plus the forest service ‘vacating’ grazing alloments everywhere...the predator populations have exploded.

Even Canadian wolves released in Yellowstone are showing up in Colorado.
