Episode 43: What Good is a Wolf PT4 - More of John and Mary Theberge’s Great Leap Research

Episode  43: What Good is a Wolf PT4  - More of John and Mary Theberge's Great Leap Research

This episode continues by sharing the 1987-1999 work of Dr. John Theberge and his wife Mary Theberge. In this episode, I’m going to focus on the uncovering of the annual deer migration and the collective freak-out that this caused amongst the people of the Round Lake area, the Ministry officials, the Theberge’s themselves, and eventually the general public of wolf lovers and protectors.
