Rabid wolf?

A wolf acting in protection of young?

Or, a documented case of predation?

Even IF predation, we see dozens of cases every years of DOMESTIC DOGS killing humans...

Should we kill all of them too?

I’m with you...I hate over reaction on this stuff and you make excellant points...relax. Not everyone is ready to extinguish the wolves.

and, of course, there is the historic fear of wolves.

I merely pointed out that you're wrong about there not being any documented attacks on humans. You're free to draw any conclusion you wish.

Instead of romanticizing about wolves I think human/wolf relationships are healthiest when both humans and wolves are a little scared of each other.

I've had wolves respond to me howling in Michigan's Upper Peninsula where I've also seen several in the wild.

I also observed and photographed a pack of wolves hunting a cow elk in Yellowstone and let me tell you I would not want these fellows in my back yard. The Michigan wolves were afraid of humans; the Yellowstone wolves clearly were not.

Limited and controlled hunting of wolves will insure that both humans and wolves maintain a healthy respect for one another. It is ridiculous to suggest that I advocate “killing them all.”
