of course it upsetting but ranchers can shoot wolves that predate livestock, you shouldnt target a whole species for the 'crimes' of individual animals!

You people need to actually get into the wildlife control offices and realize that there are REASONS why people are doing this.
I highly doubt that any of you are sustinance hunters or ranchers. However, you need to realize that a large number of our population is, and they will not take advice from people who grow up in cities and who's closest connection to a wolf is the siberian, malamute, or alaskan husky that they own.

yes thats right its government!... who are pandering to the pressures of the powerful hunting lobby & ranchers, not the independant scientists who say wolf numbers are too low yet to consider hunting!
even the wonderful sarah palin likes a bit of ariel wolf,bear anything that moves hunting dosent she
