Wolf kill pics.... Trophy Bull Elk.....

I just returned from yellow stone for winter vacation. We took a snow coach ride in to old faithful lodge and spent the night. On the way in the driver was telling me that the delta pack has learned to take down full grown Buffalo's and that it has been videoed a few times now. They had a pic of the alpha male it was a 147#. that's one big *** dog. He was saying how happy some of the people that work with the wolfs where because the Buffalo's need to be thinned out.
If these dam wolves keep this up. I promise you they will start hunting people its just a matter of time before they kill some one in are around YS. They think grizzlies r bad wait till the wolves get a taste for humans and don't fear us any more.

Never been even ONE recorded instance of a non rabid wolf killing a human being. FACT...go look it up.

Let's see, the teacher jogging by herself in AK in 2010.

The guy at at a mining camp in northern Canada in '05, I believe it was.

The gal that was killed by a pack of captive wolves she was tending to in Canada in 1996.

The hunters in MT in 2010 who had to shoot their way out of a pack of wolves that followed them for a long way. And many, many other situations of agressive wolf behavior that is becoming more common.

People are killed every year in other parts of the world, espeically in the regions where the old Soviet Union existed. Wolf attack are common there. Well known wildllife biologist and wolf expert, Dr. Val Geist, is from Russia and because of that has a little different take on wolves than many north american biologists.

This is just basic biology, as wolf populations increase at an unchecked ~ 25% population increase per year in the US, we are more and more likely to have more negative human/wolf interaction.

There are a few good reasons that modern history in North America has recorded few fatal wolf attacks on human, one of which is that most of modern history here man has had firearms to keep wolves at bay. During most of the time when so many people where killed in Europe, firearms were either not available or governments did not allow them (interesting to research this a bit more--thankfully, we have the 2nd Ammendment at this point.)

Warning: Very Graphic

Wolves Deny Young Lives

I could go on, but I grow tired. If these facts (as you say) don't sway you a bit, then there is no point to discuss this with you.

Hunter's who do not understand this situation need to be educated. Hunters who blindly support wolves as they are now have a lot to learn. History clearly shows these animals must be aggressively managed or there will be very little hunting left to do. And that is exactly what the folks that introduced them want. They want maximum numbers of wolves and no hunters, no 2nd ammendment, no grazing on federal lands, etc.

The wolf is a merely a biopolitical tool of the left. Hunters, do no allow yourselves to be deceived. Many hunters would be OK with the 300 wolves ('experimental population' number originally agreed upon), but lawsuits by extreme environmental groups and misguided counting methods have increased that number by 6-10+ times, while severely impacting elk and deer herds.

Elk harvest in ID has dropped precipitously. Do you see the connection?
 
And I agree with him! YOU leave the wolves alone and let them do their thing and you go and do your thing and both will be happy.


you gotta be kidding me! the elk herd in the lolo zone in idaho has been cut by more than 60% since the intro of the wolves! If we use your method of live and let live, our way of life hunting big game will be over and the next step is for the wolves to focus on cattle for food.

Wolves have thier place in the lower 48 as long as their numbers are kept in check. Man is the only predator of the wolf. We are the only means of keeping thier numbers under control. Anyone that thinks letting the wolf numbers expand and increase is a good idea is a fool and has no interest in preserving the hunting heritage of the west! SSS, SSS, SSS, SSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Well he does live in Ohio. So the wolf thing doesn't effect him much, so why should he care.... It's seems it's different when you see the real results of the wolf populations and are effected by it. If this is how they want to run it then I hope they figure out how to charge all these wolf supporters because the revenue generated by licenses and other hunting related revenue (lodging, merchandise, tourism related income) will decline. I bet this guy loves wolves so much he has a three wolves howling t-shirt I'm mean they look really cool and all
 
The only problems with wolves are the areas that ran out of mice! LOL. The Yellowstone
experiment has disproved a great deal of popular mythology regarding the wolf. Breeding
it's not just the "Alpha's" that breed, they don't mate for life, single females raise litters alone, the number of pups can be double what was assumed. Sport reflex killing is common.
Actually much of this was known and predicted by Canadian Biologist, and it's as unlikely to reach the masses now as then.
Yellowstone rangers killed a wolf this year as it was becoming more aggressive around humans. Guess they weren't as positive about that, won't hurt humans thing.
In parts of the world where folks are less well armed wolves are more aggressive. I just read in India where wildlife numbers have dropped (wonder why?) , livestock has to be guarded 24/7, and wolf aggression towards humans has increased.
Wildlife to livestock to pets to garbage to humans unwilling or unable to defend themselves. Seems to be a pattern worldwide if you look at the point where contact occurs, and get off the University grounds.
