[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1796523, member: 7999"] I think there is much motivation behind the wolf movement that is rooted in anti hunting. I do not believe that the wolves that we have were all netted in the northern territory of Canada and planted in MT, ID, and WY. The only place that I know of that they were planted was YNP. There they penned them for a year before they let them go so that they would not go back to Canada. I don't know of anywhere else that they kept wolves penned so that they would not go back to where they were captured. The wolves were coming across the border before the transplant took place in YNP. No different than the wolves in Idaho are moving into Washington and Oregon. Also the wolves in WY are Headed in to Colorado, regardless of how the folks there vote. Wolves move into other wolf pack territories and kill them or get killed. They don't know don't know about state lines or international borders. There is not nor was there ever a some magic border barrier that stopped the wolves from crossing. Bad actors on the animal rights/anti hunting crowd, for sure. Genetically modified wolves that have been dropped in our back yards by evil doers, I don't think so. Laws that protect wolves, yes. Laws that prevent the use of any means to kill wolves, yes. Do wolves kill every living thing they can find, no. Do they take the game populations down to zero before they move on, no. Do they do damage game populations and livestock, yes. Until those laws are changed we will have the wolves and they will continue to expand the area that they live in as long as there is food source for them. The more food source the more wolves, the less food source the less wolves. [/QUOTE]
