the Wyoming Wildlife Federation for " quite
a few years. " From there, Zwonitzer said
he became a " workaholic, " which included
owning as many as four furniture stores in
Cheyenne and serving for 10 years in the
Wyoming Legislature.
" It was in my blood to do things, "
Zwonitzer said. " I was always up to challenges
and doing things I wasn't necessarily
comfortable with. "
It
is still
in his blood to do things.
Zwonitzer and his wife, Kym, have about
360 acres of land southeast of Cheyenne.
Zwonitzer was hauling hay prior to talking
to Wyoming Wildlife for this story.
The last paragraph of Zwonitzer's essay
read: " It is the people who need wildlife, from
the smallest youth to the oldest human being.
Let every individual know the importance of
wildlife because it is essential to the survival
of every living form on earth. "
Fifty years later, Zwonitzer has similar
thoughts and feelings,
" Nature is a part of who we are. I still feel
that some of the best therapy in the world
is when you get to walk through the forest
and enjoy the total wholeness of the outside
world, " he said.
- Robert Gagliardi is the associate editor of Wyoming
Wildlife.
