I can’t help but wonder if these wolf attacks are largely the work of wolves and wolf hybrids raised by bambi freaks who then toss them out when they get uncontrollable. Like the legendary Beasts of Gevaudan they may well by hybrids who don’t know how to make an honest living.

Interesting article. I recently acquired an anti-wolf and anti-bear device that I plan to carry with me on backpacking trips into the wilderness.

Does anyone remember back when the leftists tried saying there has never been a documented case of a wolf killing man before?

Here's a quick question: How many members of the current Congress and the current administration have ever been hunting? My guess is very few.

My guess is very, very few. I'd bet the majority have feelings similar to the anti-hunting nuts but are afraid to voice those opinions.

Very good article. If wolves are allowed to multiply as other predators have been allowed to multiply to the point they get accustomed to man, we'll have a real problem. They are pack animals and as has been shown in Russia are definitely a danger to man.

Idaho, Montana and Wyoming are smart enough to want to strictly manage wolf numbers, I hope they're successful in their upcoming court battles against the enviro nazis.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolf_hunting#Europe_and_Russia

“In the latter years of the 19th century, Russian hunting societies began an energetic campaign against wolves. In 1897, members of the Moscow Hunting Society killed their first 1000 wolves, though the number of professional wolf hunters at the time was rather low. Serfs began hunting wolves after their emancipation in 1861, though rarely with success, as civilian firearms were highly expensive, and the cheaper ones were usually primitive and unable to bare the heavy ammunition necessary to kill wolves”
