” Good question, and why aren’t the enviros concerned about the elk?”

1) Wolves oppose humans and are thus seen as heroes.

2) Wolves kill livestock and drive ranchers out of business. Thus, they are heroes.

3) Hunters like elk. Hunters should be destroyed. Thus, environmentalists don’t care about elk.

4) Wolves limit the economic viability of communities throughout the West. Thus, they are heroes.

5) Wolves provide environmental organizations millions of dollars in funding and funding, and thus are heroes.
