Johnny nods at the sheriff, and turns to the red headed woman who spoke. “Excuse me Doctor, but I would like to point something out to you. I realize that you wish to protect your wolves but in your rush to release then into the wild you didn’t consider the repercussions. You just dropped a large number of predators into an established eco-system, and you clearly did it without establishing the means of balance ahead of time. If you had the wolves would not have gone through their food supply and moved onto the livestock here in town. Which by the way is the livelihood of those who own them, every cow killed takes food from there families, and therefore is theft. If you wish to keep the locals from hunting your wolves down, maybe you should take a portion of the funds you receive and reimburse those who lost livestock. That would most likely keep tempers calm till something better can be done.” When he is finished he sits back and waits for the oncoming verbal barrage.
