Hey Russell - if you stop hunting (KILLING) the deer, elk and moose, you won't have to worry
about their populations suffering, you jackass. Let nature take it's course and let wolves be
wolves. There is no need to kill any of them. How proud you and all of the other killers must feel when you wipe out a defenseless animal. Must make up for something that you are lacking.
Why don't they move the wolves to other states too. Like Texas and Colorado or Ohio. Russell keep up the great work. Somewhere back East. Wendy you need to look at my wolf pelt.
This is another outrage that they are getting to hunt these magnificent animals as it is to increase the amount is just about blood lust period. The Obama administration is not very wolf friendly. sesli sohbet
people are arrogant and stupid. they think the world revolves around them and they have no concept whatsoever of how nature balances itself with each creature playing its own role. the people of the west are only concerned about how much money goes into their pockets and have no clue about the wider implications of destroying wolf populations. we have worked so hard to get these animals back to their original habitat, and now this can all be undone by a bunch of stupid, narrow-minded, ignorant ranchers and politicians. you should all rot in hell.
i am and so disappointed in what has been established in Idahos community and what the HECK
they are thinking.wolves are magnificent creatures and people(HUNTERS)don't need to kill wolves for fun or to the number of how many wolves there are in the country(U.S.A).wolves live off on food water shelter(burrows)and air people(hunters)who kill for fun should be demolished,i not sorry for what i said but my anger who killed the wolves who have done nothing to hurt the people.SOMETIMES there are killings and stores' about a kill on a farm were a goat or any other animal was killed by a wolf. imagine this,you were once never hungry had money and had a good life until you lost all your money and couldn't buy enough food you live buy a farm you didn't want to die of starvation.then you killed...an animal just to support yourself.yes imagining this is horrible,and yes this may backfire on what i said but i said what i said and as i always do...i hope,this has finally come to you'r mind that what i said has (FINALLY)got you'r senses right about wolves the right way,and mybe just maybe things will change nicley for wolves.I PRAY A GOOD LIFE FOR THEM AND ALWAYS THEM AND TO MANY OTHER PEOPLE AND SPECIES.GOD BLESS ALL and goodbye
Nature does not need man to regulate, control or "manage" her in any way. The more we mess with the natural ecosystem, the more we screw it up. If people would just leave the wildlands and the wildlife alone, they will take care of themselves but of course they won't.. hence the repetitive problems and the needless cruelty that we see happening today, saw yesterday and will probably see again tomorrow. It all revolves around money.. surprise, surprise.. if it's not the wildlife agencies making money off of hunting licenses, then it's the ranchers exploiting the land to graze their cattle..just about everything that happens to the wildlife is due to people eating meat; either the kind they've hunted themselves or the kind someone else killed for them and they got at their local fastfood outlet.. perhaps going vegetarian might help.. but of course I'm not stupid enough to think anyone's going to go vegetarian just to save our wildlife both in the oceans and on the land.. I guess this sounds pretty soapbox and preachy about vegetarianism, but if you think about it, it would have a huge impact on everything if everyone went vegetarian.. but then again, if they did that what would I feed to my cats and dogs? I guess I'm glad we're not all vegetarian after all.. Oh hec, just forget I ever said anything..
I pray that this judge will be wise and stop this sickness. Ken Salazar has a lot to answer for.
This policy is sickening. I live in Texas, where only a generation ago, the Texas Red wolf became extinct directly because of the free-for-all hunting of predators in this state. Now the Texas Parks and Wildlife has to spend massive energy and money promoting deer hunting because the whitetails have been so successful in the absence of these predators that they're actually a big road hazard.
There is so little of the wild left. Why oh why must we destroy it all? What is wrong with humans?
The wolf must be destroyed to satisfy the greed and sense of entitlement of hunters and ranchers. They got used to killing deer off their cars and to letting cattle graze freely on federal lands. A return to the old ways of hunting and ranching is not part of their plan. I pray God that judge Molloy see things as they are and restore the much needed protection to the wolves.
Is this
possible???? State wildlife officials in Idaho are going to allow electronic calls and trapping for the hunt this year. Why, Why, Why?????? These people should all be fired!!!! It is revolting what we are doing to our wildlife. AND COWARDLY
I am so disgusted that we are hunting many animals nearly to extinction, including the magnificent wolf. They were here long before man, and deserve to be here. May Judge Molloy have the sense and compassion to end this slaughter.
Anyone who has lived in northern Colorado or visited Rocky Mountain National Park knows that hunting by people does not begin to control elk. Elk have devastated much of the riparian habitat of the Park and nearby areas. Do we want the same thing to happen in Montana?
If this country does not stop the killing of our animals and endangered animals, it will be the most shameful thing we have ever done. These animals are our heritage and have lived in the wildlands which are their habitats for hundreds of years. Now man, which is becoming the root of all evil (not the love of money), except that man is doing this for the love of money, and the greed for more, more,more land at the cost of anything and everything. When your children and grandchildren and future generations have no animals left in this country to love, see and behold their beauty, it will be too late. I think we should round up these people who love to kill, these beautiful treasures of our past and chase them around with guns and see how they like it.
If we are to save what is left of what America used to be, we must stop these slaughters now.
Please, please, U.S.District Court Judge Donald Molloy put a stop to this insanity.
Man is the only animal that kills for no reason. It takes a really big man to kill a defenseless animal with a high powered rifle with a scope. These animal killers are perverts committing perverted acts. I would classify them as sociopaths. I pray to God that the judge puts a stop to the senseless killing.
It's taken the Montana Dept. of Fish, Wildlife and Parks decades to finally get the elk herd around Yellowstone National Park down to manageable levels and now the killing of the wolves will erase that progress. Without the wolves, the state biologists were unable to overcome the hunting lobby and finally get the elk herd to where the forest vegetation could recover. The same situation is found in Wisconsin where the increasing wolf population is finally helping to get the deer population down and the northern forests are finally able to regenerate instead of turning into deer pastureland. Hopefully, sense will come to the state of Montana and they will listen to their biologists instead of hunting license money, welfare ranchers and lobbiests.
The reduction of the elk population is far, far below a manageable level, the elk may never recover.
The vegetation has not recovered as expected, leading many scientists to agree that extedned drought/ low rainfall is what is causing the loss of vegetation.
The state of Montana does listen to their biologists, that is why there is a wolf hunting season.
The fate of one of God's most beautiful creatures is in the hands of one man, Judge Molloy. We can only hope that he has compassion and common-sense.
Wolfman--you are so right. Finally, someone who knows what is going on and will speak out for wolves. Greed is the root of all evil.
This is another outrage that they are getting to hunt these magnificent animals as it is to increase the amount is just about blood lust period. The Obama administration is not very wolf friendly.
Nature doesn't understand the inane world of the judicial system. All it understands is that the more of a species exists, the greater the chance of its survival. I hope that the judge realizes this. We're losing our bio-diversity everyday, because of legal issues, which the courts condone. What will our descendants think about this lack of foresight?
Quick-----get Sarah!!!
Quick!!! Get Sarah!!!
Why? Is Sarah not a predator? Or is she suddenly a fan of the wolves?
This slaughter of woves demonstrates that in the US there too many disgusting human beings who enjoy killing defensless wild life. They have moral compass, just a gun and bullets. Sick, sick, sick.
Quit the slaughter!! Wolves are a natural predator and should remain so!
