Hunting them, yes. From the air, no. Let's give those wolves a fighting chance and make it a little more real life "life or death" for the hunters.

the wolfs should be left to roam as free as we are anybody caught shooting them or causing them harm in any other way should be put in a pit with half a dozen of them to teach them a lesson

But the only way to get to most of the overpopulated areas is in the plane. You do not want to mess with mother nature up there going cross country!!! Plus it is easier to spot the wolves by air.

Plus that video is from the 70's get up to date people!!

Thinning the wolf population so that they dont over-run an area i can understand, but letting idiots fly around and shoot them wherever they find them i dont agree with. They should do like we do in NY. The DEC watches the wildlife population, and only allows hunters to shoot certain varities of animals in areas where it is needed most. They issue licenses to hunters, but only for sections of the state that need it most, and when the population has been thinned out enough, they revoke the licenses until the population increases again. This plan that alaska has makes it sound like they are going to allow just any idiot with a gun to go where they want and shoot the wolves, which is just going to create more problems.

After years of research, it is recognized by practically all state and federal wildlife officials that predator management is a prerequisite for guaranteeing stable populations of prey species. Given that many Alaska residents rely on moose, caribou, and other wildlife species for food, it becomes imperative that those species not be decimated through lack of predator management.
The Alaska wolf management program accomplishes this.
It does so through a rigorously regulated, scientifically based system targeting only those predators in areas where wildlife populations are not able to reach adequate levels of sustainability in the program’s absence.

If it takes this...

to prevent this...

then that's the way is, like it or not.

I do not see it to be a good idea just to kill them for no reason. However Alaska has a very good reason, the high wolf population has greatly diminished the carabou population. Since they have started managing the wolf population they have seen great increases in the carabou population to safe levels and an increase in the moose population as well.

This was the suggestion of the DNR. Wolves were over populated in five areas. They almost depleted the moose population. It was down 80% of normal. Many folk living in these areas are dependant on the moose for survival. Action had to be taken and it worked. Wolf populations are back to healthy levels and the moose population is rebuilding. Trapping would normally keep the populations normal but the bunny huggers would rather fill up land fills with their petrolium based clothing than use a biodegradable renewable resource. Fur.

I understand if i were a rancher and wolves were killing my live stock I would kill them too... They are beautiful creatures though but I don't think they should be allowed to kill live stock..Or small children...

Wolves are predators and they kill the animals that Alaska eats. Beavers are hunted, geese need to be hunted they are everywhere and killing people by flying into airplane engines. C'mon people, their are hunters out their that can verify this. Wolf populations need to be controlled.

But it doesn't count if you are not hunting them flying around and picking them off is not hunting it's just killing .

We only know about it because It's Alaska ,Sarah Palin Governor.Wolves have always been controlled in any State of the Union when threatening the natural food chain, by over population.Farmers often will even get paid for protecting their livestock.The film is propagandistic and aimed at damaging the Governor.Not to worry though ,my girl can take care of herself.

They are not just pests, but Alaska practices population control of these animals to protect the game animals, which many Alaskans rely on for food. This film is a piece of propaganda made by the "defenders of Wildlife" to demonize hunters and Sarah Palin.
Regardless of how you feel about hunting, this is a legal means of controling the wolf population, the wolves in Alaska are no where near endangered, and the Alaska fish and game knows what they are doing. And the people of Alaska support them.

Look into the co-existance of wolves and moose on Isle Royale National Park. Not only did they co-exist, they actually depended on one another. I can see killing predators (it's a barbaric way to make a living) when and if they become too numerous and threaten domestic livestock or the ecosystem, but that's an extreme case.

This is done to control the population. If not, the wolf would soon wipe out other species of animals through predatory hunting.
Davebra... to Mark February 14, 2009 16:24:57

Do a search on Isle Royale National Park and read about the co-existance of wolves and moose.

It's a barbaric way to make a living and as a sprot is on about the same level, or maybe lower, than feeding Christians to the lions.

justonemom to Davebra... February 14, 2009 15:55:57

Oh yes, the killing of humans, especially those damned Christians, is preferred to the killing of canines. That's why so many of the pro choice folks are anti-hunting, anti-meat eaters. I wish there were a way to make the entire animal kingdom just stop eating each other...then it would truly be a perfect world!
Davebra... to justonemom February 14, 2009 16:15:53

Oh come on now, I said MAYBE lower. Actually I'm against most any type of killing (except for food) including fetal abortion. In nature it is normal for predatores to kill other animals for food and we humans are, in fact, predators. Killing animals just for the thrill of it is barbaric. Now that I think about it, that's an insult to the Barbarians. Perhaps it's more a perversion of the "civilized" folk.

They are hunted by the appropriate branch of the government of Alaska to thin the packs to preserve the other wild life. It is quick and efficient. I understand liking wolves; they are very beautiful but I also like the other animals and understand the need to trim the pack.

Doesn't anyone wonder why this particular vid shot by the saviors is shown; they are the ones shooting the wolf so he is not killed but rather wounded. Is there no end to their hypocrisy

as to Gov Palin, of course she supports it - it is voted on by Alaskans and they have plenty of wolves up there and know the packs must be thinned. Alaskans still get to make decisions about their own state. Every time it comes up it is quashed by the people of Alaska. Cripes I am tired of the constant stupidity of the left, control everyone, conform to what ever celebrity cause is popular, and use as much lying slander as possible to make a specious point.
Davebra... to Bill - ... February 14, 2009 16:32:42

As to the hypocrisy, I don't know. The video could have been professional hunters and taken, obviously, from another plane. That is to say, the shooters were not the ones filming this.
