These at my place are the ones that were planted at the National Zoo many years ago, specifically, eight of them in 1902, and a few more in 1906. They were transplanted from the Rondeau Provincial Park in Morpeth, Ontario. They took many years to get to my area about 30 miles north of the zoo. Organizations who follow such things report that none had been sighted and reported within miles of here just a couple of years ago. Maybe we have some that were artificially transplanted. The ones I transplant are sent only a short distance from here. My Wirehair just hates them, but is less intolerant of the greys.
