Author: Pet Life Radio July 7, 2026 Duration: 22:00
Deborah describes some differences between wolves and dogs including bite force and gives you some basic facts about wolves and the issue of the cull. Deb Wolfe asks ‘ Why do we decide it’s a choice between wolves vs caribou when it’s our fault the wolves can reach the caribou through corridors we made into the forest?’ also in other areas where wolves were hunted later on problems with overpopulation of larger animals hurt the smaller and the wolves had to be returned to restore the vegetation so all species would have food. Do you believe the wolf cull should happen? Do you believe it’s ok to capture one wolf, radio collar it and then track it back to its pack to shoot them all from a helicopter? The riddle of the day is what popular cocktail in Canada has a connection to an animal that was rescued? Did you know that cats have expanding and flexible spines? Deb Wolfe teaches you and demonstrates how to howl so dogs will join you and howl along with you.
