Never Cry Wolf


Taking a boat along the shore in Alaska I saw a wolf and went ashore to look at it. It ran inside an old box trap with the gate missing and was frantically trying to escape. I got to within ten feet of the wolf and wondered at its size, strength and why it didn’t just turn about and leave. It was pushing at the steel wires making up the box, snarling and frightened. I was somewhat concerned too and returned to the skiff and left.

Since wolves are fairly smart I wondered if it was trying to communicate something about life in general like wildlife hasn’t a way to escape human encroachment.

Wolves might perform in a circus if they were asked politely and well fed.
