Wolf populations are stable now. There’s nothing wrong with removing a small fraction of wolves. There was a post very similar to this that was made by some animal activist. It ended up having several hundred posts on it. |

Quote: There’s nothing wrong with trimming the population of wolves! In most states, wolves aren�t considered endangered any more. I visited my mother in Idaho awhile ago. During my visit, I discovered that Idaho was going to allow wolf hunting. Idaho wanted at least 100 wolves and ten differant breeding packs. Some thing like that. Idaho had about 600. Just because a small fraction of wolves is being removed, it doesn’t mean that people have to create a petition. Most people are only starting petitions like that because wolves are their favorite animals. It’s true. If a wolf wasn’t an animal you liked, you wouldn’t care about wolves being hunted. People need to understand that wolves can be successful in the wild even if we hunt them. To me, wolves are just feral dogs that run around killing livestock, howling, and competing for dominance. Despite my negative opinions on wolves, they’re one of my favorite animals. However, I see nothing wrong with making a dent in the population of wolves though. Many people don’t support wolf hunting because they look at wolves and see their dog(s). Well, like domesticated dogs, the wolf’s population needs to be controlled. We humanely euthanize dogs because they breed and reproduce excessivly. Wolves breed and reproduce quickly. In order to control their population, we hunt them. You can’t believe in humane euthanization and not believe in population control hunting! Let’s say that in the future, humanely euthanizing an animal is illegal. Hundreds of thousands of animals are dieing on the streets because they’re starving and suffering from diseases. Humans are being attacked more often by dogs who see them as threats to their territory and dominance. Well, what if the same thing happened to wolves? What if you had wolves living in cities now because they’re wasn’t enough room for all of them. Do you see what I’m getting at? That might take a long time to happen, but it’s still a possiblity. I look at those petitions and I think they’re a waste of time. Petitions like that don’t usually work. A petition similar to that one didn’t haveany effect on the hunting of wolves in Alaska several years ago. I’ve got a question... Why doesn’t any one care about Coyotes? Coyotes are canines and look very similar to wolves. They live in small packs, establish ranks, howl, and tear animals apart too. Why isn�t any one trying to save the Coyotes? They’re being hunted down daily!If you’re sooo worried about wolves, than why aren’t you worried about Coyotes? It just doesn’t make since to care so much about wolves and then ignore Coyotes. Why aren’t Coyotes as popular as wolves? Also, why doesn�t any one start a petition on Red Foxes?! They’re canines too! Coyotes, wolves, and foxes are all canids. Why are people only concentrating on "saving" the wolves? |
