In a search for an appropriate introduction to this piece, one that would adequately capture what I found so compelling in its words, I was struggling to find concise descriptions. But in an on-going dialogue with Kris she managed to capture it in her own words, "I think scientific knowledge and understanding are essential, but personal meaning is constructed in the emotional connections that we make." Her approach exemplifies the sort of expository writing that Yellowstone Wolf Tracker is proud to convey. Thanks, Kris, for another treasured memory of one of my favorites as well. N.V. | |
