"Year of the Mexican Gray Wolf" event is today

The Great Old Broads (and Bros) for Wilderness will have another "Year of the Mexican Gray Wolf" event at noon today. The group will meet at 10:30 a.m. at the Silco Theatre, where they will assemble caskets and signs and read a eulogy for fallen lobos, saluting the five wolves that were killed illegally in 2010.
