I hate wolves. JUST hate them

[Heredoggydoggy]

I'm just waiting for the wolves to attack a hiker up on the Saddlerock Trail and hear WDFW say the hiker got hit by a car first...

I glad most hunters disagree with you. You must be a liberal?

You paint a pretty narrow-minded picture of American politics if you define liberal or conservative views based whether or not you choose to hate wolves.

My friends would roll on the floor laughing if they heard someone accuse me of being a liberal.

I'm no liberal.  I just don't see the logic in hating an animal for being an animal.

I hate wolves and Obama!!

That's the problem with society is more wild stuff and every body thinks we need more resources. What we need is more armed resources to keep the killers in check.

So can you be ok with a muslim that just killed 100 people? After all, they are just being a muslim....

Well, they are just being muslims. You can't hate them for that

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.

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.

I agree with this. Before the sprawl of humanity spread across the country there was plenty of game, and plenty of wolves. Humans have done far, far more damage to the wildlife population than a handful of wolves have done in recent years. I'm all for a managed hunting season on all game, wolves included, and better options available for controlling other large predators.

And no, I'm not a liberal hippie tree hugger.

As far as the muslim comment, that's just stupid.

[Kola16]

I agree, it is stupid.

Plenty of game? Is that why Lewis and Clark survived off domestic dogs and salmon when they came to Washington? There was not plenty of game in the north west. Wolves play no significant part in todays day and age, there may have been a few before but they never thrived here.

We dont need wolves, they will have nothing but a detrimental effect on todays society

you wolf advocates dont see the big picture and you call hunters who dislike wolves narrow minded, hunters and most sportsman give endlessly to the survival of habitat and wildlife, wolves dont just stop with deer and elk, why dont you realize that, is it going to take a little kid playing in his yard and getting mauled by a wolf, or a tree huggin, wolf lovin, bunny humper getting picked off in the sticks by a wolf for you to realize that wolves no longer have a place in society in the lower 48  why dont people realize that wolves were done away with because they are not your normal predator, they do not fear like cougars, bobcat and yotes do. wolves are testers, they become more braisin by the minute, they are constantly testing strengths and weaknesses and they exploit the weaknesses very efficiently. you wolve lovers need to wake up and see the big picture, i for one cant wait for mama and baby leaf licker to be at a feeding station and while they watch the elk in their winter grounds eating their hay a wolf pack comes in and start grubbin on baby elk and watch mama elk stand there and watch her baby get consumed, that should leave a wonderful longlastin memory for the leaflicker family.

I Don't much care for wolves but can you blame the wolf for doing what wolves do. No. Blame the jack wagons who brought them back

I was more referring to your environmental views and apparent disgust for man. I'm sure the world would be better off if the government just started 'acquiring' millions of acres of undeveloped land and deemed it 'protected.' Lol. Furthermore, you are in the minority of people that see wolves as an 'attraction.' The vast majority prefer to seek out elk and deer, and unlike wolves, elk and deer allow game agencies to be self-sustaining (the only government sector that I am aware of that is capable of this). Just take a look at Idaho's F&W revenues over the last few years as proof of the impact of wolves along with their declining elk numbers. Wolves COST the government (state and federal) millions to manage and provide detriment in return. What a great deal.

 May want to change the RCW in regards to road kill before we do that!
