Wildlife researcher on quest for answers
From Powell Tribune:
Coming to Cody to give a speech on the relationship between wolves and elk isn’t done so without first recognizing the subject will be debated with highly-charged emotions from both sides. Kristin Barker, research coordinator for the Beyond Yellowstone Program, knew she was going to face a full house of well-informed spectators.
“It might seem a little ballsy of me to give a talk about wolves in Cody, Wyoming. That’s because when people usually think about wolves, they see them in black and white, typically as one extreme or another,” she said.
