Doug Smith, project leader for the Wolf Restoration Project in Yellowstone, has studied wolves for over 20 years. He was involved in their 1995 reintroduction into Yellowstone. Prior to that, he worked with wolves in Michigan (Isle Royale National Park) and Minnesota. In this talk, he emphasized the need not only for science, but also for stories, as we approach a complex, emotional situation involving wolves and humans.

Recorded as part of the Our Yellowstone month at the Bozeman Public Library on September 25, 2018.
