How do you feel about gray wolves? Our team describes them as iconic representatives of the wild West, as packs of charismatic animals that remind us of our own families and as a historical human fascination. This is why we work to minimize conflict and build social acceptance for wolves. #YearOfCoexistence 🐺https://dfnd.us/graywolfcoex🐾 | Defenders of Wildlife
