Time has taken its toll on this old lone wolf who has wandered our area by himself for the past 3 years (footage from this past winter). He looks battered and weather from an intense and rugged lifestyle. Aside from just being old, the wolf has a significant limp because he is missing his two front right toes. You can see this in the first sequence well.We don’t know how that injury happened. How a wolf in this condition survives year after year is certainly intriguing. In particular, how he keeps himself fed is fascinating because it is hard to imagine him chasing down deer by himself but possible he is capable of it. We suspect he is likely an expert scavenger, finding morsels of food here and there, but can a wolf like this persist just by scavenging all year? More specifically, is there enough food lying around on the forest floor year round for a wolf to exist solely on scavenging? Seems hard to imagine but perhaps. Anyway, many years ago, we captured this wolf on camera once or twice when he was part of a pack that lived just outside of our study area. The pack made a few forays into our area which is when we observed him. At that time, the wolf was in his prime, though he still had the distinctive largely white face, and appeared to be the breeding male of that pack. But such times would not last for this fella. And now after many years on his own, it seems this wolf likely doesn’t have many years left. "Time the conqueror", as Jackson Browne put it, has taken its toll.

In 1976, a Soviet singer was told the lyrics to his new song were too politically risky to broadcast. The words were about an American cowboy riding across a prairie while his sweetheart named Mary knitted stockings for him. During the Cold War, that kind of sentimental view of America would never get past the censors. So Eduard Khil and composer Arkady Ostrovsky made a decision: sing the whole thing without any words at all. Khil performed it on Soviet television in a brown double breasted suit, grinning the entire time, belting out nothing but “la la la” and “trololo” while strolling and gesturing dramatically. It aired, people enjoyed it, and that was that. Khil went on to become one of the most celebrated singers in the Soviet Union, awarded “People’s Artist of the USSR” in 1974 and known across the country. When the Soviet Union collapsed his career faded and he ended up singing cabaret in a cafe in Paris. In 2010, someone uploaded that 1976 clip to YouTube. It exploded. Millions of views in weeks. Khil had no idea until his 13 year old grandson told him “Grandpa, everyone knows your song on the internet, all around the world.” His son said his father thought someone was making fun of him. He kept asking “Where were all these journalists 40 years ago?” But he embraced it, adopted Mr. Trololo as a stage name, and performed the song live again on Russian television on New Year’s Eve 2011. He passed away in June 2012 at 77 after a stroke. In 2017, Google honoured him with an interactive doodle on what would have been his 83rd birthday.
