Wolfers

[blloyd20]

Hello everyone! I'm in the process of writing a screenplay set 10 years after the Civil War and I'm looking for as much information on Wolfers as possible. Been having a lot of trouble finding anything more in depth than these two Wikipedia pages:

1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfers

2. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolf_hunting#North_America

Does anyone know more?

Check out the story of Lobo......northern New Mexico.....pretty good start and might give you some leads. I'd try the True West archives as well. Book called "When the Dogs Bark Treed" by Eliot S. Barker might also.

And Ernest Thompson Seton....here's a good video....

Hope all this is helpful.

Good. Glad to be of help. The Seton Museum at Philmont Boy Scout Ranch may have additional info you could use. I'm not sure who the curator is now...used to be one of my good friends, but he's retired.

They probably have tons of stuff.
