What purpose do wolves surve. We cant use them as a food source they reduce the deer population but we can do that ourselfs they kill cattle they have no use and their was a bounty for a reason. face it the old timers had their act togather and hows that go history has a tendency to repeat itself. They are not needed and definatly dont need to be federally protected. Their all over in northern wisconsin and our making a drop in deer up their I hunt up their all the time. They should be kept in check like all animals espiecally preditory ones so they know man is also a preditor. And dan that wolve kill if I remember correctly was last winter but was in ancrage alaska. but im not 100 percent sure it was by the dump where the wolves dont fear people though. Their was a bounty on them for a reason and thats all that needs to be said in my oppinion.
Who the flock are you to determine what living thing is "needed" and "serves a purpose"? Yeah those "old timers" were frickin' rocket scientists weren't they? Guess they didn't see much use for the Native Americans either did they? And they frickin' decimated the deer populations as well as every other wild animal until modern day educated biologists finally were able to step in with the support of other enlightened individuals with some foresight and established management practices that allow the likes of you and I to have a healthy population of wild game to hunt.
