I think there should be a healthy population of wolves where they belong...and healthy populations of deer and elk, where they belong, too.

Even though I hunt, I'm willing to subsume my own interests to accomplish the goal of a well-balanced ecosystem that includes wolves, deer, and elk...and I support the management schemes that will help keep it in balance, if man made issues are the things that push it out of balance.

One thing I don't like, as a hunter, are the guys who say "I want to protect the public, the farmers, and the elk!"...when what they really want to do is shoot a wolf, all the other schit bedamned.

I don't think there's anything wrong with wanting to shoot a wolf, I just prefer if people are honest about it, instead of trying to justify it on some other more palatable position, like they're trying to do someone or something a favor.

Fish on...
