The return of wolves to their native lands does not have to preclude viable working ranches on those same lands. One does not need to exist at the expense of the other.
Through deeper social understanding and proven long-term focused, sustainable strategies on-the-ground that support and value ranch families as stewards of the open spaces, together we can finally create a lasting environment where wolves, livestock, and people can successfully coexist and thrive on our wild-working lands.

"You are the only ones that have bothered to take the time to truly get to know us, involve us, and understand our challenges. Ranchers are not about wanting to kill wildlife, on the contrary we take great pride in providing healthy wildlife habitats and preserving open space from urban development. It is our lands that host the elk. deer and much of the habitat that wolves need to survive, and we just want to be able to survive ourselves. The Working Circle model is providing real-life solutions along with an acceptable coexistence approach for ranchers that not only supports and improves livestock operations, but helps the wolf by making the wolf a “non-issue” for ranchers, thus protecting them long-term. My heartfelt thanks to you and your commitment to our efforts." ~ Northern California Rancher, 2017 |
