The moment Ted Turner stepped forward and peered through a spotting scope to see the place where the first wolves%2C dispersing from Yellowstone%2C had been feeding on a winter-weakened elk. Phillips had phoned Turner and informed him that wolves were back on the ranch%2C fulfilling the media mogul%27s desire to have his property be a home for every wildlife species that originally inhabited that southwest corner of the Gallatin Valley.  After Turner received Phillips%27 call%2C he headed for Montana immediately to bear witness.  Today%2C the Flying D is home to one of the largest wolf packs in America and its presence has not had a major negative impact on Turner%27s private bison or with public elk that live on the ranch and pass through it.
