Northwest ranchers uneasy living among wolves
Food And Farm Wolf Payments
Rancher Denny Johnson, looks over his cattle Thursday, Aug. 25, 2011 in Joseph, Ore. Johnson has raised cattle for 32 years on his remote northeast Oregon ranch at the foot of the Wallowa Mountains. Now, summer is proving just as worrisome due to gray wolves that have moved from the Northern Rockies into the Pacific Northwest. As ranchers deal with the influx, the state is moving to implement a new program to reimburse producers for their losses. (AP Photo/Rick Bowmer)
