I agree, but when the introduction of wolves was firtst mooted it caused great upset with the ranchers there. Self interest prevailed for 70 years with the loss of the wolves but I'm glad it's finally been vindicated by the wolves themselves.

We don't have wolves in Australia, but our Dingo population is being depleted more and more. Dingos keep a balance on wildlife the same as the wolves do in other countries.

Thanks for sharing.

The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, because there are 80-some wolves in the state, has recommended that they be removed from the state's endangered species list.  These are the same cretins who think and increase in hunting and fishing license costs will spur and increase in purchases.

We have our own little wolf family here in Southern Oregon..........the famous OR-7 found a mate and has fathered at least two sets of pups.  They are located near Hyatt Lake, and have been accused of raiding cabins.
