[QUOTE="bman73, post: 611688, member: 31591"] here in B.C. anyone can shoot a wolf witht he purchase of an annual hunting liscense, no special tag required. I think a big part of why we don't have AS BIG of an issue is twofold. Firstly and most importantly, to this region it is a NATIVE species. The ecosystem did not have to try to adapt to the introduction of an invasive species that was replacing a predator that it did not have to cope with for many years. Secondly and almost as important, in my opinion anyways, is the fact that our lands are a lot less developed for much larger areas. The majority of the interior of the province is largly undevelped, allowing the critters in any given area the ability to use all their evolutionary tools to stay alive thus keeping things in balance. Where large areas had been clear cut in the past as well as areas that have been cleared for farmland there are wolf issues. Easy source of food(livestock) as well as a predatory advantage for a pack hunter that now has the ability to chase an annimal across large ares till it cant run anymore. I'm sure someone is going to argue with these points and say that there is no proof of these staements so I will close with the staetment that these are my opinions based on the experinces of living here and seeing what happens for all my life [/QUOTE]
