Because of their political power, ranchers have declared war on wolves and the goverment is backing them despite the fact that most people feel that wolves shouldn’t be hunted down.

Millions of oour tax dollars were spend reintroducing this keystone predator back into its historical range only to have more millions spent to once again eradicate them.

Where wolves live, the ecosystem has more balance. Land isn’t overgrazed by deer and elk standing around like cattle because they have no fear of predation. Beaves come back when aspens are allowed to grow instead of being eaten be seditary elk and deer.

Wolves keep prey species strong by feeding on the old, weak and injured.

On the other hand, hunters go for the strongest and biggest of a species. If they tell you otherwise, they’re lieing to you.

Wolves are an important part of the environement. Cattle and sheep are not.
