Wolf debate in Haiku

HucksOnline commenter Wedeln6969 has launched a conversation in Haiku on Rich Landers' Outdoors blog, after learning a new wolf pack has been confirmed in north-central Washington, near the towns of Omak & Twisp. Wedeln6969 began the conversation with this:

wolf in winter

wolf puppy howls, branch
sees, quiet coy flame bragging
melting angels groan

Spokesfolk responded:

snug in LL Bean quilts, urbanites
text, chilled range rider shudders
mother cow drags entrails.

And on it went here.
