Words and rhetoric matter, and over years they sometimes add up to justify or allow or give a wink-n-nod to some pretty unthinkable actions. This is one of those sick outcomes.
This evening @WGFD released video evidence of a muzzled wolf with what appears to be a shock collar on the floor of a Daniel, Wyoming bar.

When my #MWNB colleague @WillWalkey mentioned he was working on a pickleball story, I immediately thought of my neighbor Heather, who built two courts in her front yard & opened them to the public. Great to see her project included in Will's fun story boisestatepublicradio.org/sp…
