"You {WC} 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 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
“All ethics so far evolved rest upon a single premise: that the individual is a member of a community of interdependent parts. The land ethic simply enlarges the boundaries of the community to include soils, waters, plants, and animals, or collectively the land.” ~ Aldo Leopold
