RE: for all you wolf lovers
Humans are the biggest sport killers. How many gopher and coyote hunters are there? How many kill a bear and leave everything but the rug? I hear of all the horror stories of elk and deer with their hind legs tore to peaces. Don't get me started on telling you how many wounded animals I have found in the woods shot to peaces by hunters or suffering by a slightly off arrow. I'm seriously considering giving up archery hunting as I have made a few bad shots and it isn't necessary for me. How many city hunters go out in the woods and shoot deer just to take back to show their friends and then leave in the dumpsters.
You don't want to argue with me about the ethics of wolves. They have every right to be out in the forest. It's a matter of how we manage them that's the problem. We need to take care of the ranchers too, as they have a right to exist and make a living. We can't put wolves back everywhere but they should be in some places.
This is a little off track now and should stay focused on sport killing but it galls me to hear about how bad wolves are. They aren't the ones taking up all the winter range which is the biggest threat to our game animals. Anyway's, the greed of it all is pathetic.
Wolves live by instincts and we think through what we do and we still sport hunt.
