Wow you guys, lol. Pretty intense! They claim there is 12-15 wolf packs in the Meadow Valley area. A pack of wolves is estimated to eat or take down 30-40 deer a year. So say there are 15 packs.....at 40 deer per pack. Thats only 600 deer in a VERY big area. They used to give out 8000 doe tags a year for that same area. People are not complaining because of them eating deer, even though they think they are, it's because they feel threatend of a wild animal that isn't afraid of anything including humans. In the food chain of the wolf.......we are in it........but not at the top of the list, lol
