Re: keeping the wolf from the door
Apr 21, 2004, 18:56
All you have to do is to take the wooly jumpers away and the trees return, poking through the heather. The birch and particularly the rowan are the pioneers. The last wolf in England was killed in Weardale - I thought you'd like that. The date, in the 17th or 18th C, is in there somewhere but temporarily blank. Behind Coanwood is a placename Wolf Hills, so they must have survived here quite late too. One of the early Flashman books has a good account of a sledge being chased by a wolf pack.
