| don't leave. |
Just spent the week in Algonquin park. Pics to come.
We went on a Wolf howl. This is how it happens. The Park staff go out the night before and try to locate a pack (or two) by driving the highway and howling every so 5Kms or so. (The highway through the park is like 50km long)
They post the howl time on all the camp grounds and everyone meets at the visitors theatre. After a presentation they tell every one to be quiet when you get to the location and listen while one of the Staff howls. We all hop in our cars and in single file drive the highway to the location. The staffs are there to turn half the cars around so we are on both sides of the highway.
This is the thing. There were 2500 people and 500 cars!
You don’t realize how freaky it is for this many people to be standing beside there cars in pitch darkness and not making a sound! Before they close the highway for 20mins or so, they let a couple of cars through and with the headlights you can see the thousands of people standing quiet waiting beside there vehicles. Like Cose Encounters before the Helicopters come.
Anyway, Ranger boy howls and about 5 seconds later you hear the pups waiting for Mom and Dad to bring home some grub.
Listen.
Howl
that is so awesome... but now you fucked up a whole family of wolves! Hey, I live in california, this is how we think out here
