The story of the wolf suckling Romulus and Remus is simply a relic of an age when the milk of the dog or wolf was as regularly used by m man as the milk of the sheep was a few years ago Wales and Scotland. The damage done by wolves in Ru ia includes about 200 human lives, a lo of from ^700,000 to,£1,500,000 worth of farm stock, and an incalculable lo of uscfiil wild animals.
