Just have a long hunting season or cull them. But to introduce wolves as the solution.....that's nuts.

And there is something called forestry.

We need more Aspens?? Really??

I have a cousin that lives on the edge of a national forest in Arkansas. Many years ago they reintroduced some kind of rattlesnake into the forest. Why?

“Just have a long hunting season”

It is just that simple.

Hunting Seasons no matter how long will not cull enough of the Elk to cause the herds to decline to a sustainable level.

This is Yellowstone so there are no farmers or ranchers to complain about wolf packs so they are doing what nature intended. Wolves should be managed also and I believe they are.

Forestry will do nothing to stop the Elk from eating the bark off a sapling and killing it.

Yes, they need more aspens. Really conservation has nothing to do with global warming and climate change hoax. It has to do with maintaining a balance in places like Yellowstone to keep those areas in there natural state. We have and still are damaging those eco-systems. Between killing off buffalo increasing elk herds for hunters and killing off wolves, we have to now find a balance so that region can thrive again.

But then the Yellowstone caldera may erupt and leave a third of the western USA under water or at the bottom of a large crater, killing off crops in Nebraska and Iowa and this whole discussion will be mute.

Or have a hunting season AND a trapping season, to keep both at manageable levels.

Wolves are protected in MN, they have too many wolves & farmers are losing livestock at an alarming rate. I don’t recall seeing many Manatees in MN, perhaps the DNR should meddle with nature a bit more.
