Smossy, wolves have NEVER LEFT THIS STATE! The WDFW has closed coyote hunting in the NC cascades to protect wolves way back in the 90's... Here is the biggest beef most hunter have. Wolves from the great white north were deposited in YNP as an "Experiment" and then it morphed into bringing back an ESA protected species. While i don't have anything against wolves in general, I'm against the sub-pecies they brought down, how they used Pitman Robers funds to do it, and there are questions of legality of them importing more into ID. Any time you cram stuff down people's throats they get pissy... Ad that to the fact that most ESA related issues has more to do with non profits raiding gov coffers for "Attorney fee reimbursement" wile making bank really drives hunters mad.

Don't really care about the technicalities. I see no point in either species to exist in our state.Wolves or coyotes. Kill them all. Guarantee neither will show mercy if your on the tail end of they're diet.If someone really cares to enlighten me though on a valid reason why they should be here other than something pretty to look at, Then lets hear it.
