Wolves

Surely you can do better than a headline like that. It is true, the wolf population must be cut down, they are destroying livestock and other wildlife. Go to Yellowstone and see what is left of the elk herds.
DOW pays for “confirmed” livestock kills now, but that process means about 1 out of 10 actual kills are “confirmed". Families are paying the rest of the cost.
Once they are delisted, each of the 3 states must have a plan in place to compensate ranchers who are now carrying the burden. DOW and the rest of the cheapskate wolf lovers will have no responsibility whatsoever. The wolf numbers must be brought down to a reasonable level to protect ungulates and private property.

I take it that you mean extinction when you say reasonable levels? I thought that the desire to bring wolf populations to "reasonable levels" was the reason this thread began.
