Gray wolves are highly territorial apex predators. As such they are self-regulating. These are not herd animals. They did not evolve under heavy persecution by Homo sapiens. Managing wildlife as one would an artificial game preserve is part of the mindset contributing to steep biodiversity decline. Overpopulation, conflict, disease? Humans needs to take a good look in the mirror, and manage themselves. “Because our growing population has pushed them out of their habitat”. Hypocrisy. What’s the end game? Keep growing until there is no viable habitat? Keep shrinking the habitat and blaming the wildlife until they’re finally managed into oblivion? That sound pretty extreme to me.

Far as I’m concerned she just joined the ranks of people that “hey let’s just go shoot something today and post it for everyone to see.

The sad realistic part of it is everybody wants to kill a wolf just because. I don’t understand that either.I am all for animal rights and protections and I’m very much against people that do stupid irresponsible unrealistic acts and things just as hideous as what was done to this husky or any other animal. Thats the hard part and it pisses me off.

We’ve become this thinking and acting its acceptable behavior to do whatever the hell you want and sit there and use the excuse of “I didn’t know” dah! This woman doesn’t get a pass with me and shame on the authorities or anybody else not doing anything about it.
