There has been much controversy regarding his death and much effort expended to defend the behaviour of the wolves and in turn blame the actions of man. Many facts were misrepresented which helped to distort the truth and convince the public to believe that wolves quite simply could not have been responsible for killing a human being.
We believe the investigation into Kenton’s death was less than ideal right from the beginning and our family has struggled not only to come to terms with his horrific death, but with the lack of information we so desperately craved in order to understand why we no longer have our cherished son and brother.
The coroner’s office hired a reputable wolf biologist, Dr. Paul Paquet, to review the investigative material and provide a summary regarding the death of our son. Unfortunately our access to the investigative findings only left us asking more questions rather than providing the answers we needed. Our opinion is that Dr. Paquet wrote a weak and biased report based on his ideals as a wolf conservationist and ...
An inquest into Kenton’s death will be held in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan from Oct 29 – Nov 2 of this year.

George,
Undoubtedly the “nice wolf” idea is just leftist fantasy. On the other hand, there really aren’t all that many wolves in the wild and we have 300 MILLION humans right here in America. Surely we can lose one now and then without it making much of a dent on society.
On the other hand, I like camping, hiking and kayaking in what’s left of “the wild.” Surely we don’t have to extend Hillary’s “nanny state” to the few wild places left, do we? For those who are scared, they can just pack a 44 mag or better. If that’s too much, just stay home and work in a cubicle.

Thanks for the post, George.
The other day, I picked up where I left off in ‘The Wolves of Alaska’ by Jim Rearden. I recall telling you about this one a while ago, but I haven’t touched it in a while and have been away from FR for too long!
Per your other post, Tim Treadwell probably takes the prize for ‘Biggest idiot in Alaska’.... beating out Chris McCandless!
Thanks for the ping, George.
