Wolves in Idaho

[fabsroman]

I think this is retarded. First off, who cares if the wolves kill the elk or hunters kill the elk, so long as there are still elk around. What do we expect wolves to do? Thing is that wolves don't buy hunting licenses, guns, ammo, etc. (i.e., they don't spend money). If the wolf population is getting too high, which I would highly doubt, then they should sell some wolf hunting permits at a decent price to generate some money to help the elk.

What really amazes me is that wolves and elk existed for so many years together without man's involvement. However, now we see fit to get involved. What ever happened to wildlife keeping a balance. When there aren't enough elk to feed the pack, some of them will die from starvation. Once the pack is cut back from starvation, then the elk herd will grow again. As the elk herd grows again, the wolf pack will also grow.

The only problem I can see is if the wolf pack moves somewhere else in search of food, especially if it happens to be an urban area.
