Wolf

Wolf_4

This wolf would like you to know that, on November 8th, 1519, Cortés reached Tenochtitlán, which was the midpoint of an invasion that killed thousands of natives and nearly one thousand of Europeans.

This wolf would also like you to know that on November 8th, 1520, Danish forces executed 100 Swedes.

The latter is called the “Stockholm Bloodbath” but the former is most often called “discovery”.

This wolf doesn’t understand humans.

colobus

I’m somewhat negative about my two trips to Africa last year. Lots of money, lots of time, and lots of effort to see some of the extremely small slices of the wild that remain out there.

Still, it was neat to see a wild colobus.
