Sarah Palin is from Alaska. Things are viewed a lot differently in areas where we actually live near and deal with wolves and other animals. It's pretty easy to sit over there in the UK and talk down on all these "bloodthirsty American hunters".

I'm sorry, I will look more into the facts of the wolf populations in THAT area, I am speaking for MY area, where wolves are nowhere near to endangered. I do NOT have a problem with wolves, they are an incredibly beautiful animal and I do love them, even though we HAVE had horses killed or critically injured by wolves (I understand that this is natural)... but when their populations reach numbers that begin to decimate our moose/caribou/sheep populations, then I am all for wolf control of some kind.

Just because I am involved in the hunting industry does not make me a heartless animal killer. It's a part of our lifestyle and our livelihood, as it is for many, many people in parts of Canada and the States.

However, I won't be posting in this topic anymore. I should have realized from the beginning that it was pointless.
