I've never cared much for wolves in the wild. I really don't see why conservationists keep trying to protect them. Here is a gruesome scene that is played over and over because of these predators....
Maybe a good graphic documentary film is needed to show the wolf in all its brutal, gruesome glory for the wolf lovers. Indeed, this is what wolves do. It is part of the circle of life, no doubt. It doesn't perturb me that wolves do this, though I'm not happy about deliberatly transporting them to prime elk hunting areas. My point is that many of the Sierra Club type supporters of the wolf probably DO NOT see this "bloody in tooth and claw" reality of wolves and might reduce their support if they had graphic, intimate video footage of this wolf behavior.
Maybe we should have a cartoon movie showing wolves eating bambi and other gentle woods creatures in order to win mind-share of the youth, as for example was done with the "Open Season" cartoon movie this past fall whose transparent objective was to lampoon and discredit hunters among the youth.
certainly is disturbing. the photographer, Michael Veine, is a writer, have read a couple of his articles in Petersens Bowhunting. I do not care for him.
We got packing houses across the country that run thousands of head of livestock through them a day, a couple million people that have come no closer to killing thier own food then the freezer isle at Walmart, a generation of kids that have no idea 2 days earlier the hamburger they are eating was walking around in a pasture eating grass and a wolf killing a deer is a disturbing image.
The difference between that wolf and 3/4 of Americans is the wolf has to do the dirty work himself.

Yeah I find it disturbing, the idea of any living thing suffering an agonizing death is disturbing.
I dont see what it has to do with kids not knowing where beef comes from. I do agree the fact of their ignorance is disturbing.

Actually T roy I wasnt addressing you personally with that post, I just read the replies that accompanied the artical and didnt read the ones in here that closely, just hit the reply button.just a coincidence you and I both used the word disturbing actually, i picked it up in one of the articals replies.

Again, I was refering to the replies in the artical.Just strikes me as hypocritical to condemn a wolf for eating a deer, and then take your kid to McDonalds for a happy meal.People kill more animals in a day then every wolf in the country probably kills in a year.Somehow running a couple thousand head of cattle a day through a kill floors more appealing to people then a wolf killing a single deer.Hope they never have to rely on thier own skills to feed thier families, most people would fail miserably if someone else didnt do thier dirty work.And the problems only getting worse with every generation.

You live your life in agony then. Hundreds of thousands of mammals die daily, millions of birds die daily, tens of millions of fish die........... none of them are killed "humanely", all of them are eaten alive by the next up on the food chain. Not to mention the vast numbers of living creatures killed by automobiles, insecticides, pesticides, chemical poisoning, urban sprawl etc etc etc
Animals are here for humans to eat. To ensure this, God created a system of death. Its natural, is what happens to living animals.
Remember, animals are not meant to die of old age. They are meant to be eaten by other animals as sustenance. They have no souls, their "pain" and " suffering" and "agony" isn't on the human scale of such words.

Nice God we have. Exactly why does he want to watch his creatures killing each other? What did the deer to upset God?
By the way if I had been there, I would not have left the deer to die a "natural" death. I have already illegally dispatched two deer in my lifetime;each of whichhad been wounded by other hunters. If God has truly given us dominion over the animals, I am sure that he won't mind if we exercise our dominion to ease the suffering of them should the opportunity arise.
Final point, I despise wolves. I know of hunters that will shoot them on sight. Wolves kill deer, lots of deer. They do nothing but reduce my chances of getting a good buck. We wiped the wolves out of Wisconsin for a reason..... we don't want them.
Wolf bites deer.
