That is. not even the biggest example and they can be much larger. Imagine about 8 or 10 chasing you down like that poor lady jogger in Alaska recently. The way to properly control the wolf population is through hunting and every single state with wolves understands this and allows it. Wolves need to learn to avoid man and domestic animals and maybe after a few centuries that bad canine DNA traits will kill off wolves that need to be eradicated.
Have no problem with population control of wolves. Nice picture BTW.
Have a problem with people suggesting that an apex predator should be eradicated. We’ve been down that road before - see Kaibab deer population irruptions in the 1920s and late 1940s that followed reductions in predation. The predators and prey are different but the end result is the same.
In the case of the Kaibab herd, predation was primarily by cougar and coyote with the method of taking deer different vs. wolves. But the end result is the same, remove large amounts of predators, the deer herd is more apt to increase beyond the carrying capacity of the area. Or in other words, predation limits the density of low deer populations; and food limits the density of high deer populations.
We have to learn that lesson time after time, year after deer, with some people wanting predators reduced without understanding the downstream consequences, and some wildlife officials recklessly and without good data introducing predators into an area, again without adequately understanding the downstream consequences.
