Wildlife artist Brain Kadrmas, right, and Brian Henes of Dakota Taxidermy in Bismarck, North Dakota, build a new wolf exhibit at the Mendenhall Glacier Visitor Center on Tuesday. <\/p>\n

The exhibit includes the stuffed pelt of the local black wolf known as Romeo that was illegally shot in 2009. The U.S. Forest Service will hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony during the intermission between repeat lectures by Alaskan writer and photographer Nick Jans on Friday. Jans helped raise more than $40,000 to construct the new exhibit that includes two interpretive panels, a bronze cast of the wolf\u2019s paw print, and his recorded howls. <\/p>\n
