Washington's wolf population grew by more than 30 percent last year and formed four new packs.
...
The state also found there are now 16 wolf packs and at least five successful breeding pairs.

How many of these are feral packs in Seattle and what are their gang affiliations?
Idaho has 22 breeding wolf pairs, an estimated 1,000 wolves.
Idaho Fish and Game biologist Jim Hayden : there are likely more breeding wolf pairs in the state as biologists this winter have gathered information on only 30 of the 107 known wolf packs in Idaho.

Oregon’s got quite a few, I’ve heard.
North Carolina has just one Wolf Pack.
And apparently, USFW is putting grizzlies in the Siskiyous. Injured bears from other States are rehabbed and introduced without public input.
Quoting someone much more familiar with wolves than me “Bet if they move into the cities, the homeless problem will go away”.
Despite Warnings From Experts. FWS and IDFG Ignored Diseases, Parasites Spread by Wolves .
This was common knowledge among wildlife biologists in northern Canada and in Alaska where FWS biologist Ed Bangs was stationed prior to being assigned to head the Northern Rocky Mountain Wolf Recovery Team. Yet in the July 1993 Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) provided to the public, Bangs chose not to evaluate the impact of wolf recovery on diseases and parasites .
This alarmed a number of experts on pathogens and parasites, including Will Graves .
The feral thugs apparently dump problem bears from Yellowstone NP into Utah and elsewhere.
OMG! I was wondering where my $600 pedigree Chihuahua, my four chickens, my duck and my pet rabbit went. Shoot! Can’t keep any animals of my own!
Can they be relocated for release in DC? They have a pest control problem...
Noone’s supposed to know, but one is alleged to have been shot and killed...which is why nobody could say it was a mis-identified black bear, near the Siskiyou’s. It apparently was near a guy’s house, and his dogs alerted on it. Seems to me, the only reason to release one there is that whoever did it knows there are others. Good idea, introducing “problem bears.”
The animal and enviro nuts keep plugging away to increase the numbers of predators. I honestly believe it’s to make it so the majority of people will stay off of public lands.
Now there’s been a lot of talk about bringing grizzlies to the North Cascades...Idiot enviros!
Bangs was told at the time about hydatid tapeworms and chose to ignore the testimony, assuring the public that wolves to be introduced would be clean. He belongs in jail.
Let us hope the wolves feast upon an animal rights activist or two.
LMAO! I know you are joking, but domestic pets disappear all the time out here unless they are taken indoors at night, and we don’t even have bears or wolves-just coyotes, feral hogs, mountain lions, and at times, packs of feral dogs.
Clueless Birkenstock wearers sometimes move here from the city, get chickens, ducks, goats, etc and keep them all mostly unfenced with their domestic cats and dogs. Then they howl when the creatures get picked off one by one by predators. The county has little sympathy-this is, after all BFE-not a burb. But they did put up signs on all the roads warning everyone that a loose dog will get you a $500.00 and up fine-and if it is running or killing livestock or pets, the sky is the limit...
I’m rather fond of wolves myself-my dog is a Siberian Husky-some similarities, but much less apt to bite...
This is why coyotes are migrating into suburbia - the Agenda 21 advocates are trying to drive folks into cities. You can not kill them unless you practice Shoot/Shovel/Shutup. And it is illegal to shoot the wolves, even in self protection or property (livestock or children) protection.
The Comal County officials have also imposed these ridiculous fines on your loose dog after one of them chewed up Grandma years ago.
Texas is a state of MIND.
