Two weeks ago, grey wolves were taken off the endangered list. In Wyoming, they have been given a new label - predator. This means that anyone can shoot a wolf on sight, no permit required, with the exception of national parks. The excuse for allowing this is that wolves "kill just to kill", and therefore apparently don't need protecting, even though they have been considered endangered for far longer than most species on the list. It's fantastic that they have finally made it off. Will decades of work to save this species be ruined by the government's lack of foresight? Will grey wolves be once again considered endangered in Wyoming?
I think that it is ridiculous that these animals are already allowed to be hunted right after they were taken off the endangered list. There are better ways to deal with these animals. Killing them isn't the answer. This just doesn't make sense to me, do they want these animals back on the endangered list? They are beautiful animals and the only time I believe violence should be used is if a wolf was threatening a human.
ReplyDeleteI think that Wyoming shouldn't allow people to freely hunt these beautiful creatures. They just got off of the endangered species list, it's obvious that it doesn't matter. I think that these animals should be protected rather than hunted.This is so sickening to me,people need to think less about themselves and more about the enviornment.

ReplyDeleteThis really does shock me even for America. I can understand why people would want to protect themselves but I think that they need to lay off killing the wolves until they are in immediate danger, because this will no doubt turn into a slaughter.
