I agree with BigBulls. Wolves are just another predator but the management (which in this case is none at all) is the MAJOR problem here. I believe that wolves HAVE depleted elk herds and hunting opportunities in some areas. I believe this to be wrong. When it first started I was all for wolf re-introduction. The reasons why I was for it have not changed. But I had no idea the government was going to be this neglegiant in handling the re-intro process. This is one of the most rediculous management plans I have ever seen.

It's real sad too because I for one always believed man, and other wildlife could live with the wolf. I believe that had the re-intro been been conducted with much more intellegence many out there would have always seen we could live with the wolf and I think overall support would have eventually been won. But with the way it's been done from day one until now, those who were on the fence are almost all now against the whole thing.

In my opinion is was a good idea but HORRIBLE execution.
