Oregon Elk Hunter Kills Wolf in Self-defense

Within the article about the Oregon man shooting the wolf is a link to a Wikipedia page listing wolf attacks in North America. Many people distrust the information if it came from Wikipedia because it's written by the people who use it. However the first two entries are of Candace Berner and Kenton Carnegie, both of which had been killed and partially consumed by wolves since 2005!

The Alaska Dept. of Fish and Game has the report on Candace Berner here: http://www.adfg.alaska.gov/static/home/news/pdfs/wolfattackfatality.pdf

An article about Kenton Carnegie's death regarding the coroner's jury report in Saskatchewan can be found here: http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saska...-in-wolf-attack-coroner-s-jury-finds-1.690056

Many of you know the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) is not an actual Humane Society but an extremist animal rights organization which exists to write and introduce anti-hunting legislation across this nation. Outdoor Life magazine and other hunting magazines have written about the HSUS in the past in the effort to educate hunters about the enemy. The HSUS sells itself an "animal protection" organization but the reality is that they are behind writing and introducing most of the anti-animal ownership legislation we see. The HSUS is closely affiliated with Peta through the animal rights philosophy as well as with also sharing employees. Looking at many of the animal rights groups as a whole, they tend to have incestuous relationships with each other because of employees jumping from working for one animal rights organization and then the other. In other words -- a number of HSUS employees have worked for other animal rights groups and vice-versa. The HSUS also has at least one employee who has been a member of the Animal Liberation Front, a domestic terrorist group according to the FBI.

Anyway – my point is that these animal rights groups are willing to take their anti-hunting agenda a small step at a time in order to achieve their goal of ending all hunting. They are behind introducing wolves into the U.S. and then protecting them from any reasonable control because they know the wolves will devastate our huntable herds before the balance of nature decreases the numbers of wolves. We've already seen that in parts of Wyoming, Montana and Idaho too and it's now beginning to happen in Oregon.

When the herds become devastated, there will be fewer people hunting which will compute to fewer fathers passing along the hunting heritage to their children. It's all part of the greater plan!

We can blame the libitards all we want but if we're to turn this thing around we need to identify an actual enemy – and educate America that this enemy is not a friend of animals nor are they a friend of America. That enemy is the HSUS!
It looks like we have some of PETA people in on this talk.. All you have to do is look at how they write and sound...
But I do belong to a PETA group (PEOPLE WHO EAT TASTY ANIMALS)...

All wolfs in the lower 48 should be killed..
 
Crockett12, you're kind of a scaredycat aren't you? Wolves are the last thing I worry about in the mountains. mtmuley
It's a little like when I took flight lessons and I was told
-- "there are old pilots and there are bold pilots -- but there are no old bold pilots" I'm an old one -- hopefully you will be an old one too!
 
Well..... I would rather hunt wolf infested mountains than get on a plane. People need to get a grip. Wolves aren't out there hunting down and killing people. Where do you live by the way? mtmuley

wolves hunting and killing peoples. a person could b a case
of wolf scat!! Happy Thanksgiving to all. we r so very
fortunate to b free. I have not watched a NFL game this season.
God bless our troops. TUM
 
I live in wolf country too Crockett12. mtmuley

When an apex predator which hunts in packs isn't hunted by man, it soon loses its fear of man -- and whether you agree with or not -- that soon becomes a dangerous situation! A hunter doesn't need to be paranoid – but to downplay the danger or to ignore it -- is inviting danger!

I'm not worried. I killed one, gonna kill more I bet. No need to try to stir up an unreasonable fear of wolves. mtmuley
 
There is a reason that poorly armed northern native populations, especially European and Russian peasants, have always feared wolves, they kill people.

Great post, and to reply to just this one small section: As far as non-rabid wolf attacks, one Russian scientist examined old administrative records from the period of 1840-1861; For just this period, and based on limited and incomplete archival sources he found documentation of 273 wolf attacks, resulting in 169 deaths. All but 7 were children. http://www.nina.no/archive/nina/PppBasePdf/oppdragsmelding/731.pdf

And of course there are the infamous Kirov wolf attacks, which the Farley Mowat types attempt to discredit:

The Kirov wolf attacks were a series of man-eating wolf attacks on humans which occurred in 1944–1954 in nine raions (districts) of the 120,800 km2 Kirov Oblast of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic[1] which resulted in the deaths of 22 children between the ages 3 and 17...... During World War II (the Great Patriotic War for the Soviet Union), wolves in the Kirov Oblast began to increase in number and develop bold behaviours toward humans, coinciding with the conscription of Kirov hunters into the Red Army, and the requisition of firearms from villages.

" I live in wolf country" I'm not sure what meaning that is supposed to have? A good look at a map listing packs, and distance wolves are known to range qualifies almost all of the west. Add in dumps, escapes etc, and a wolf may be encountered almost anywhere.
 
BS.
Posted this only to watch for the aftermath.
I know of only one verified instance of a wolf killing a human in North America. Chignik, AK. Two wolves killed a young gal.
The AK F&G flew in helicopters until they found and killed the two wolves.
But I suspect there were others over the millenia. Dead men don't talk.
 
I said I live in wolf country because I don't want the wacko animal rights people to know where I live. I don't want them to visit me and this forum as well as many others are likely monitored by them using Google Alerts.

I've been very involved in opposing the animal rights agenda and there is a lot on money behind that agenda. The HSUS itself has a yearly budget of somewhere around 200 million dollars and high 6 digit salaries at stake as well as about 50 million dollars socked away in the Cayman Islands! When there is that much money at stake, some will go to extreme lengths to protect that money!

Large animal rights groups commonly use their mentally ill followers to further their agenda as well as to protect their income. Do I sound paranoid? I've met a number of their followers who I felt were pretty sick people, so I'd rather be perceived as little paranoid than meeting one of them unexpectedly at my front door!

That's fair. And they are not protecting the wolves by reintroducing them into places they haven't been for a long time. Its about time they give out a few tags in oregon for them to start keeping them in check, same as they should legalize hunting cougars with dogs. Another predator that has gotten out of control.
