| 0:00.0 | Well, howdy there, internet people. |
| 0:02.4 | It's Bo again. |
| 0:03.4 | So, uh, today we're going to talk about wolves and declaring victory. |
| 0:08.4 | And we're going to do this because I got a question. |
| 0:10.3 | Bo, since I'm certain you will know what's going on with the wolves? |
| 0:17.0 | Is this a good idea or a bad idea? |
