If wolf populations are decimated, coyote populations explode, because wolves eat coyotes. So then the coyotes will take the place of wolves as top predators and keep the elk and deer population in check, which is why they haven’t exploded out of control in New York. You have to take time to think about how ecosystems work, not just assume that adding wolves is bad and removing them is good.

Sounds like more liberal ignorant BS to me G8! ;)

You don’t subscribe to the knee-jerk ‘wolves are evil argument’ and you’re a tree-hugging PETA type eh? WHO KNEW?

I wonder what the Nooge would tell these yahoos about wolves!
