I have read a lot of things about that right now on the internet. Conservation groups having petitions you can sign. Of course with loving animals the way I do I've signed a few of them. I would agree that would ruin the ecosystem there,which could cause over population,and disease. They hunt small game,and hunt the injured and weak,sometimes young of the larger animals. In packs they can take down larger animals.

Mother Nature had the perfect plan in play, man has disturbed that plan and as a result, the ecosystem is no longer in balance. Wolves have an amazing immune system, very keen sense and the ability to hunt down sick or injured animals. Wolves are able, in most cases, to consume meat that may be contaminated by illness without difficulty. In so doing, they prevent the spread of disease to other species. It is not necessary for man to hunt deer to thin the population as wolves and other carnivores do that naturally. Contrary to what many believe, wolves do starve to death, and food is not always abundant. They must hunt often as one wolf can eat up to 20 lbs of meat at one time. Here is the major problem, cattle ranchers moving into the natural habitats of many indigenous species. Man trespassing into land that has been inhabited by wolves for millions of years, wolves date back to prehistoric time. Singing the petitions through www.wildlifedefenders.org www.nrdc.org and www.aspca.org does help, but until we are able to prevent the NRA from operating clubs like Safari International, animals will suffer. I've enjoyed reading your posts, thank you for responding to my thread. darkwolfhowls
