Tonight on Discovery Channel hit series YUKON MEN, the residents of Tanana, AK, are waging war against another resident of the area: wolves.
Last week, Tanana residents made it clear that there were too many wolves for their liking surrounding their town. Is this the wolves’ fault? No; wolves have to live and eat, too, so taking down a moose doesn’t seem out of line. But, overpopulation of many species can occur for various reasons, and perhaps that has happened in the case of wolves, leading to a threat to the moose population–and to the residents of Tanana. Hopefully, there will be more explanation on the situation of the wolf population in Alaska–specifically in the Tanana area–on tonight’s show.
Also tonight, the Moore family is having a rough time; actually, they have been having some rough issues the last season or so, with Pat’s wife’s health issues necessarily becoming center-stage and the dog business not thriving as the family needs it to do. And, the return of Pat’s nephew, Nations Jordan, has been an unsettling issue for some, as well. Pat’s daughter, Courtney Agnes, has truly stepped up to the challenges the family faces–Pat could not keep things going without her–but she has her own kids, and it is a balance that is shaky to maintain at times.
Tonight, on YUKON MEN episode “The Black Wolf,” the community is facing the wolves and the Moores are facing each other, according to Discovery Channel:
Joey deals with consequences of Alaska’s unusually warm winter and must turn to his dad for help. Pat steps in to help Courtney with motherhood while she takes care of the family business. Nations has to prove himself to Pat when he thinks their dog mushing team is running with the wrong leader.
