See Full Interview Transcript

Glynn Riley, an experienced animal trapper, worked on controlling populations of rats, gophers, prairie dogs, alligators, bears, sparrows, grackles, pigeons and coyotes. He is especially known for his role in capturing red wolves in southeast Texas so that they might be bred in captivity and then restored to the wild. Here he tells about a photographer's visit to Anahuac National Wildlife Refuge to see some of these red wolves that still roamed the area.
