One of the arguments against gun control is that guns are necessary for hunting and hunting is a more humane method of keeping the ungulate (deer, elk, moose) populations in check than starvation and disease.
The anti-gunners really don’t have an answer to that argument.
So they decided to get rid of the ungulate populations.
That is why they reintroduced wolves.
You aren’t going to find any anti-gun people out in the woods watching the wolves scamper and play.
They want the guns gone so they can impress their will on the rest of us.
The wolves are meant to destroy the deer and elk and moose so that the anti-gun crowd can take away one of our arguments.
“You don’t need those rifles! There are no deer left!”
They killed a wolf last week just a few miles from my house. A BIG, healthy wolf. There was a mountain lion in the garden center of a store a couple of miles from my house.
Not good.
I see nothing wrong with the wilderness being wild. I respect the needs of ranchers and others using the land, but it’s not the function of wilderness stewardship (I won’t call it “management”) to reinvent itself as a game preserve and safe space for hunters and hikers. Real wild is better than sanitized pseudo wild.
