The 383 gray wolves are a part of Yellowstone National Park
and therefore a part of the world.

For that reason alone, the gray wolves in Wyoming-their
numbers have now swelled to 383-should be protected
against being hunted to extinction again.

Therefore, the 383 gray wolves now living in and around
Yellowstone should be left alone to spread south to Colorado
and west to Idaho and north into Montana.

Many reasons support letting the 383 gray wolves stay in and
around the Yellowstone area, and I will discuss some of them.

Non-standard English: The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
Getting to grips with unusual English writing
Pretty soon I wanted to smoke, and asked the widow to let me. But she
wouldn’t. She said it was a mean practice and wasn’t clean, and I must try
not to do it any more. That is just the way with some people. They get down
on a thing when they don’t know nothing about it. Here she was a-bothering
about Moses, which was no kin to her, and no use to anybody, being gone,
you see, yet finding a power of fault with me for doing a thing that had
some good in it. And she took snuff, too; of course that was all right,
because she done it herself.
Her sister Miss Watson, a tolerable, slim old maid, with goggles on,
had just come to live with her, and took a set at me now with a spellingbook. She worked me middling hard for about an hour, and then the widow
made her ease up. I couldn’t stood it much longer. Then for an hour it was
deadly dull, and I was fidgety. Miss Watson would say, “Don’t put your feet
up there, Huckleberry;” and “Don’t scrunch up like that, Huckleberry – set
up straight;” and pretty soon she would say, “Don’t gap and stretch like that,
Huckleberry – why don’t you try to behave?” Then she told me all about the
bad place, and I said I wished I was there. She got mad then, but I didn’t
mean no harm. All I wanted was to go somewheres; all I wanted was a
change, I warn’t particular. She said it was wicked to say what I said; said
she wouldn’t say it for the whole world; she was going to live so as to go to
the good place. Well, I couldn’t see no advantage in going where she was
going, so I made up my mind I wouldn’t try for it. But I never said so,
because it would only make trouble, and wouldn’t do no good.
