- You're the ignorant one bud. My family has lived in "wolf territory" with the largest concentration of Grey Wolves in the lower 48 for 100 years. Have you known people with their dogs grabbed out of their yards (in the country) or off the pathes on morning walks 20 feet in front of them. Well brutal I know many who have.

I'm not afraid for myself. But I do have concerns for safety of my elderly parent who live in N.E. MN. I would think anyone with a firm graps of reality would. But it's obvious not all have that. You think someone else's land and surrounding areas are a big lab experiment you and others like you can try out your theories.

We can live with a reasonable number of wolves and other predators. But don't try to shove this down our throats. You won't get our cooperation and you're building more resentment than you know and you're showing arrogance on top of it all.

I know of a fellow personally who went out to his woodshed at night to get some firewood. It was a tough winter, a whole lot of deer the wolves had killed just within the 80 acres around this fellows house. Suppose the pickings were getting sort of slim for the lone wolves. Guess what Mr., there was a wolf in his shed eating feed he keep to put out for deer! Wouldn't you be surprised and in a potentially dangerous situation. Don't give me "no know humans killed" progaganda. Talk to Indians who live in northern Canada who've had to shoot wolves that came after them when hunting Elk and loggers who've had to climb up on their trucks when a pack followed them.

Your ignorance is amazing. You CAN NOT just shoot an a wolf or anything else that's on the "endangered species list", because you claim they are threatening your animal. That has NEVER been the case since they were "listed". You have to go through first proving they've killed your animals and then only with special approval and in this state certified trappers MAY be allow to remove some. IF you do, you're looking a 10's of thousands of fines and even jail time!

Sorry you're having such a hard time getting your facts straight and are lashing out in fear at those who propose reasonable measures to limit the over population of wolves in specific areas.

P.S. How about if we propose making your town, city, area roadless, peopleless and a sanctuary for wolves?
