From press release
The howling you hear in rural northwest Illinois on a moonlit night is not wolves. But they are making a comeback.
If you’d like to learn more about Midwestern wolves, their behavior, ecology and numbers, you are welcome to attend the Northwest Illinois Audubon Society’s presentation of “Wolves in the Midwest” at 7 p.m., Tuesday, Feb. 2, at St. John United Church of Christ, 1010 S. Park Blvd., in Freeport, Ill. Richard Benning, an environmental educator at the Severson Dells Nature Center, and president of the local Audubon Society, will make the presentation.
Wolves have made a remarkable comeback since the passage of the Endangered Species Act. Their numbers are on the rise locally in Wisconsin, Minnesota and Michigan. The Feb. 2 Audubon program is designed to help you understand more about wolves and the reasons they inspire such a variety of reactions–from fear and loathing to wonder and respect.
“Wolves in the Midwest” is free and open to the public. Refreshments will be served following the program.
