“Tons of money and hundreds of thousands of hours of labor were required to eradicate the damned wolves in the first place.

Now these idiots want to undo all that good work.”

Wolves are dogs and dogs are wolves. There are probably more wolves living in people’s homes these days than ever lived in the wild.

I know people who are scared to death when they meet a stray dog on the street. These are the same kind of people who fueled the fear of wolves. They are scared of the natural world, having scarcely spent a moment in it in their lives. Too bad for them.

Here i St. Marys County Md. the DNR has introduced Coyotes, in an attempt to lower the deer population.

Only problem is the Coyotes can catch other animals easier, such as sheep, goats and young cattle.

Huh?

Not sure of your point, are you trying to insult me?

Dogs may be related to wolves, but as tragedies have shown, wolves are not domesticated as dogs are.

Stray dogs don’t usually bother me unless they show aggression.
I live in what many would consider the back-woods, about as close to the natural world as modern life allows.
Nearest neighbor is about three miles away.

I look forward to collecting my own hides for a Wolf-Skin coat once hunting opens up in the lower 48.

The people involved in this article are closer to nature and the wild than most humans ever come. And they know an aggressive wolf is dangerous, just like a cougar stalking them.

"These are the same kind of people who fueled the fear of wolves."

Don't know anybody "afraid" of wolves.

I do know that in Chignik a woman was killed and eaten by wolves.

I do know that a friend of mine, who works for Alaska Dept of Fish and Game was forced to kill two wolves who came at him on a dead run. Could have been mistaken identity, but I doubt it.

People go missing here and again, a wolf typically devours everything and defecates hair and bones.

A pack of wolves in the wild is nothing like

a stray dog on the street.

When making silly statements like this you have to be prepared to back them up or are you a hit and run poster?
