Game wardens are power hungry JBTs.
The best ways to manage wolves and yotes is .223, and lots of it.
Early settlers knew way better than the city pansies how to manage the land.
I do not know where you are, but we do not consider our game wardens JBTs, far from it-they are country dwellers, mostly graduates of A&M or another ag college, and must have a degree in an animal science-they are primarily wildlife managers-a cousin has been a game warden in West Texas for over 30 years, and one of them is a neighbor of mine. They count all the deer and other game and other animals, and monitor the condition of each species all year-the number of tags on your hunting license for each species of animal is based on that count and condition-the more animals in the herd, the more tags I get to harvest deer, dove, etc.
My varmint gun is a plain vanilla .22, but my deer rifle is a .270. The only time I ever fired a .223 was when one of my uncles let me hunt deer with his on a weekend in the season-I was 13 or so, but I remember it was a nice gun.
And city pansies don’t know how to manage anything-including the cities they built and live in-which is one reason I choose not to live within 40 miles of one-but early settlers didn’t have any way to understand that if they upset the animal applecart, eventually there would not be enough of one species or another to eat. Europe was already getting pretty depleted at the time people started coming over here in the 16th-17th century-my family was part of that exodus-yours probably was, too. Freedom and having enough food to eat is a powerful motivator, but they didn’t know crap about game management-in the old or new world...
There used to be herds buffalo/bison all over the plains, and plenty of wild pigeons just over 100 years ago-both sources of food...
In my area of North Carolina the game wardens have said shoot coyotes on site. They feel the same way about Poachers who have threatened me
