I realize it's a part of hunting culture to hate wolves, but I don't see the logic in hating them because they eat other animals.Other than the fact that it means less game for hunters... It's simply competition then; and logically you should hate other hunters too.
I think its the pack thing maybe. I occasionally want to club to death gang bangers that victimize the innocent as well. If someone wants to pay for my shrink I'd be glad to figure out why I hate them.
Look at the wolves tails wagging in the vid, its not just a hunt for food. They enjoy killing. Anyone who says they just kill to eat is full of it.
What's wrong with enjoying the kill? Isn't that what hunting is about? Enjoying the process, the thrill of the hunt, and the prospect of meat in the belly afterwards?Humans are allowed to enjoy killing but wild animals aren't?Quote Humans can LOSE the right to hunt for wasting game, wolves just go kill another full grown elk or moose just to eat the fetus and liver inside and go kill another.

It's all about checks and balance's, they have there place in national parks and zoo's but else where should be far game like yotes !
Again, all I see are hunters hating wolves because wolves kill game. Whether or not the eat the whole animal matters little to me.More deer are killed by cars speeding down highways. Don't see anyone taking up arms against drivers for not eating their road kill.There was plenty of game in North America when wolves roamed freely. The reason we have less game now is a problem of development and overcrowding of winter range, not a handful of wolf packs in a handful of states.I backpacked through Yellowstone two years ago and made camp less than a mile from a den. The barking up the new litter of pups kept me awake all night. It was one of the most memorable wilderness experiences of my life.I don't believe that wilderness belongs only in national parks. I want that wilderness experience in my home state. If several hundred deer are killed and left for the birds to pick clean, I say that's a reasonable trade off for the chance to experience wilderness a little closer to what it was before our highways and cities destroyed it.If we weren't parceling out the wilderness and containing wild animals into smaller and smaller ranges, there'd be plenty of game to go around, and we wouldn't have to wait half a lifetime to draw for a chance to hunt a trophy animal.I don't think the wolf is our enemy, I think development is our enemy. I can't hate an animal for living according to it's nature.
