The Library that cried "Wolf!"
We had an arctic gray wolf visit us this week! Staff members, Josh and Rebecca, and ambassador wolf, Atka, visited us from the We learned A LOT about wolves, their habitats, eating habits, their role in the ecosystem, and of course about their bad reputation: By and large, the most exciting part of the program is when they brought out Atka. Atka walked back and forth through the aisles for about 20 minutes while Josh took questions from the audience. As you can see below Atka was on a leash that looked more like car towing chain:
Please check out the http://www.nywolf.org/typo3/index.php Of course we have TONS of books featuring wolves, but as Josh pointed out during his presentation, many of them make the wolf out to be the bad guy!
And in other canine news: We will have Therapy dogs in the library tomorrow, so call today if you want a chance to read with them!!
