Wolves in the United States have suffered from human extermination efforts, habitat loss, and perhaps most significantly, a bad reputation. The Timber Wolf Information Network (TWIN) is working to reverse that reputation by increasing "public awareness and acceptance of the wolf in its natural habitat and its ecological role in the environment.� The award-winning TWIN website contains links to numerous references; news stories that feature wolves; information about global conservation efforts; a section for kids; and population updates for wolves across the country. The site also contains organizational information about TWIN, and hosts the cleverly titled online forum: Scent Post.
