YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe search for wolves in Yellowstone National Park starts by spotting a different kind of pack--the human kind.
Wolf spotters line the road whenever they spot an animal. And then more people join. And a few more. Until what seems like half the park’s visitors are zoomed in on their scopes to a tiny wolf-shaped speck way in the distance.
Rick McIntyre is usually the first to spot that speck.
“I do have a wolf,” McIntyre told a tourist scanning the landscape, trying to find a wolf in Yellowstone’s Lamar Valley. “Do you want to look through my scope?”
McIntyre is not greedy with his scope. He wants to help each visitor he meets find the animal he has spent nearly 30 years watching in the park.
“When people have a good experience seeing wolves in Yellowstone, that really changes people,” McIntyre said.
