[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 481139, member: 30671"] My favorite part of this article is attributed to Carter Niemeyer retired wolf recovery coordinator for the US Fish and Wildife "Reasonable people need to prevail right now otherwise we're going to get a political fix that is going to be unacceptable". Up to this point reasonable people have been ignored, lied to, and manipulated by a government and it's agencies who are so arrogant as to be above the law they cited to foist this disaster on the American West. One can only reason with reasonable people. The read the posts on some of the "friends of the animals" sites. These folks are about as reasonable as Osama-Bin-Laden. The current situation can't get any worse. Did anybody notice last year when that starving sow grizzly and cubs ate that camper-none of the officials said a word about how the wolf has impacted a major source of protein (elk) for the grizzly. It was a bad berry year-it was a bad year for white pine nuts (both true), but the loss of elk winter kill, calves, predation opportunities, and outright attempts by wolves to kill her cubs was also a major factor why a sow grizzly in her prime is unable to sustain herself and her cubs. These folks would have you believe that roots and berries is all this formerly apex predator eats. I guess those big canines are for busting especially tough nuts. Lets repeal the endangered species act. Send the wolves to Golden Gate, Central,and Rock Creek Parks, along with all the US Fish and Wildlife to protect them and make sure the local residents no longer have a say or access and see how "reasonable" that sounds.
