I received a letter from a university soliciting my “opinions” regarding the release of wolves in my area. Basically, the only way provided to respond was a survey where I was allowed four choices to each question. But the questions were all about my knowledge and prejudices concerning wolves. One was when confronted I should, back away, run away, etc. There was no way provided in their solicitation to provide negative feedback. I wrote a scathing letter concerning how wolves would affect my neighbors farm, my pets, etc. I included my return address and phone number. I never heard from them.

Wolves were not wiped out by our ancestors because our ancestors were evil. It was because wolves attack children, livestock and cause economic damage. Where today is there any open land not adjacent to homes and farms that the wolves would gravitate to? They would haunt populated lands for the same reason my G*d damned bear comes around. It’s a lot easier to raid my garbage than it is to hunt berries. (The bear is one fat f*ck, too. Can’t touch him because he’s wired.)
