“We just want to make sure that farmers, if they do have wolf predation on their farm, to take care of it and do something different, so the wolves just don’t keep coming back for a snack,” Dantoin Adamski said. “It’s not fair to blame the wolf if the farmer is doing less than good husbandry practices and letting the wolves come in and take livestock. And so this is an effort to have the wolves be accountable, but also the farmers be accountable.” Quote from WPR interview, By Joe Tarr December 11, 2024

Adamski added that Full Circle Farm tries to be welcoming to wildlife by creating buffer zones around the farm and habitat within it where wildlife can thrive. These areas create space for grassland bird species, which are some of the animals that suffer the most from modern agricultural practices.
