Now, if you live in Oregon or Washington then I would advise you to be on the watch for what you will see in the video. I would also be very cautious of anything you hear from those who claim the wolves are harmless, they kill only what they eat, and those who are complaining are just greedy and want no competition for the overpopulated game they are hunting.
Finally, beware of the wolves in sheep's clothing, who are trying to sell you on the idea that wolves in the lower 48 are an endangered species. They are not. The only thing that is truly endangered is the freedom of those who would rather live their lives without Big Brother always screwing things up.

If these wolves were to try to start a lemonade stand, they’d be taken out by the Oregonocrats.
Those poor misunderstood, hungry, wolves need their own Timothy Treadwell.
Just for clarity, the picture was taken in 2009, how big is that pack presently?
I understand that they are predators, etc. What I’m about to say is probably not going to fly on this forum, but I need to say it. By-the-way, I am a Conservative, and not a tree hugger with a ranch background. Animals have the number of young that can be sustained. If the food source is abundant there are more. In years when the source is scarce, the birth rate is lower. Leave nature to it’s devices. Trying to “fix” this is like the liberals trying to “fix” the climate. In the cases of predators (wolves, coyotes, or feral dogs) who get the taste of blood, then you guard your animals. You take measures. But you don’t assume that it is going to happen just because you hear them in the area at night.

From a biological standpoint, that is a beautiful photo. Wolves are spectacular to look at.
That being said...they are the a$$holes of the animal world. They are vicious apex hunters who kill for fun. They get their food by scavenging.
And no they do not just kill what they eat. They are wild dogs and dogs kill for fun all the time.
Use to watch bears swipe dozens of pink salmon a day out of rivers in AK and only eat their brains. Their brains are about a tablespoon. Carnivores are very wasteful when there is a bounty.
Justice demands that U.S. District Judge Donald Molloy spend a few nights in a tent in the Northwest wilderness.
22 Wolves? If we could put them on a t-shirt it would be 19 times more awesome than a 3 wolf t-shirt!
Kill them all, let Sarah sort them out.
We have a wild wolf pack of one.
Three escaped from their large enclosure when a tree fell across the double chain link fence. Two returned to the remaining three. One is atlarge in a very large wild area including a US Army Ordnance Works that is literally crawling with deer and turkys
The wolve tenders at the park say he is dead. My guess is he is in heaven..... a wild area with lots to eat.
Methinks when you get a pack that size what they're hunting is not supper but dinner!
Watched two programs (unrelated) that had wolf issues.
Yellowstone where as you posted wolves do kill for the hunt not for food.
The ranger was ok with that as they kill sick Bison and that is keeping things in balance making for healthier bigger heards of Bison.
The other was where dogs evolved from.
The thing that us dog lovers like is our Dogs look us in the eyes to non verbally communicate where a wolf and no other animal even chimps for that matter do not gaze into our eyes.
As a practition in non verbal communication I can tell you allot is communicated by the eyes.
Been doing it for over 30yrs human to human and that is the one thing that gives us that bond to our dogs.
It even causes a hormonal reaction in us that reduces stress and has a calming effect.
I will attest to that having been a dog owner 45yrs of my life.
