“The creator gave us the wolf as a guardian. Our brother needs us to speak for him. The wolf, our brother, is not a separate entity. The wolf, our brother, is inside of us.” So said an elder of the Red Lake Band of Chippewa, as part of a meeting in Bemidji on Saturday of opponents of Minnesota’s wolf hunt.
