I love the simple, elegant story that wolves change rivers. But in the larger, more complex tale, I am reminded of the wildness of our planet. In biology, things tend to defy simple explanation. We humans sit, scratching our heads in amused befuddlement at the glory around us, while all the time God is in his heaven, knowing all that goes on in our world.
