They're also vicious predators that spread parasites and damage agriculture and cattle/sheep stock.
The balance can't be towards letting these animals run wild over people trying to make a living, simply because people who never have to deal with them think they're nice to look at when they flip on Nat Geo.
Feed the libtards to the wolves. Hamstring one and dump him or her near a pack in the dead of winter. I bet the Youtube video would get a million hits.
I think we need to just air drop a bunch of these advocates in the wild in wolf country without food or water or weapons and see if they smile and admire the wolves up close in person.
See if their position on dealing with the wolf populations change.
I agree with you about predation, disease, etc.
Most bitter to me is that the transplanted wolves have knocked down the Northern Yellowstone elk heard from some twenty thousand to closer to two thousand.
Imagine if a rancher, logger or oil company committed that kind of carnage.
And yet these numbers are celebrated, because the activists believe that when all the wild game is gone, these murderous beasts will drive the cattle ranchers off the land.
