During the early morning hours of March 31st, a 27-year-old woman hitchhiking
on Route 6 was picked up by a man and driven to the Marconi Beach parking lot,
where he attempted to rape her, threatening her with a knife.  The woman
escaped from the vehicle and successfully evaded her assailant by running into
the adjacent woods.  After wandering around lost for some time, she was able to
flag down a newspaper carrier who called police via his cellular phone. 
Rangers and local police are investigating.  [Bill Hooper, CI, CACO, 4/3]

Yellowstone (Wyoming) - Follow-up on Wolf Reintroduction

As of yesterday, all 14 wolves were out of their pens and in the park.  Five of

The Rose Creek wolves had moved back to the park from the Absaroka-Beartooth

Cache Creek and the Lamar River; the young female was located just south of the
