I have never heard of a wolf in B.C. or algoncquin park ever hunting or killing a human. I also knew a few people who had tames wolves and they were very gentle. They were no raised in packs however just as a lone pet.

Now let's say they decide to make some sort of incentive for the biggest one even if it was something as simple as a pack of cigarettes... They are not horrible people or putting a bounty on anything the bc government has aloud them to hint this many wolves no matter what however they would like to do it. The population is healthy enough to support the aloud bag limit. Quit crying already this is happening And it is real so unless you march down to the provincial building and protest nothing is going to change!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7101030474480540585.post-38451083855940169662012-11-28T17:13:22.992-07:002012-11-28T17:13:22.992-07:00Hi John.

It amazes me how many hunters are completely missing the point. Their immediate reaction to an issue like this, is that if anyone disagrees with killing an animal, no matter the reason, that person must be a "tree-hugger", "anti-hunter" or or an ill informed city dwelling "environmentalist". As you have so eloquently and thoughtfully written and spoken about, this is not an anti-hunting issue at all. Rather, it is about putting a bounty on the indiscriminate killing of a specific animal for "fun" and prizes. Hunters and non-hunters alike should be outraged. <br />Kim OdlandAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18347271319518586805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7101030474480540585.post-68462964882519809682012-11-27T18:11:30.698-07:002012-11-27T18:11:30.698-07:00Emotions aside has Rich taken the opportunity to r...Emotions aside has Rich taken the opportunity to respond?<br />Someone indicated that he was retired from real estate<br />so that would explain why his Remax web site does <br />not fire up ? Sure would be helpful if <br />a provincial government rep would chime in and shed some<br />light regarding wolf problem allegiations in the area.<br />Has to be a better way. If there are so many wolves then <br />some enterprising folks may be sitting on a real opportunity <br />from a photography perspective. Is it possible the ranchers <br />are not getting fairly compensated for losses to wolves and if <br />they are why is that not acceptable to the ranchers?<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
