The animal/enviro-nazis in WA/OR (and that includes those that have infiltrated the two state's F&G Depts) will not be happy until wolf populations reach the level that are causing the same problems here that they have caused in ID, MT and WY.
Wolves had no valid reason to be reintroduced to the NW states. They compete with man for wild game, kill man's domesticated animals and in some cases have been a danger to man themselves.
The bunk we hear about them being a part of the ecosystem is just that, bunk. And what the enviro-nazis say about wolves only killing the sick and old is an outright lie.
When wolf pacts cross the Cascades and establish themselves in Western WA and OR the enviro-nazis that live in rural areas will start changing their tune when they have to contend with them on a daily basis. The three S's will become more popular.
Keep safe up there.
