Comments on: Alberta’s Record Size Wolf: Fact or Fiction? http://ecolocalizer.com/2009/11/27/albertas-record-size-wolf-fact-or-fiction/ News & commentary on sustainability, activism, urban planning, politics, and our world.

And as for hungry or angry wolves, they stay away from humans if at all possible. also the only places you see wolves hunting cattle are in areas where the natural prey of wolves have been driven out or killed to protect the cattle feeding areas. Given a choice a wolf would eat a hare over some child's rabbit and they would much rather eat bison than beef. the animals everyone sees running around stealing children and pets aren't wolves, though many will report 'A wolf took my Dog'. In fact recently in my area someone claimed a wolf was eating her chickens, not only was it not a wolf, it wasn't even canine, it was one of her barn cats. Regardless of that fact, every coyote, fox, and dog that looked anything like a wolf was rounded up and killed. My own German Shepherd Husky mixes were supposed to be part of that. I hunt, and now I have a $1,500 fine for shooting at an animal control officer, my neighbor was more complacent than me and now he's facing jail time for having a wolf hybrid, even though his dog was an Alaskan Mal. I wonder how long it will be before this gets in the news. PS. Wolves have been seen in my area in over a hundred years.

Alberta Canada. Not our country, not our business. When is this country going to quit sticking their nose into everyone's affairs. We are the race that needs to be controlled. Where was this at?

I do not agree with the wolf hunt at all and yet let me remind i to am a hunter and i love to hunt but taken out top predators such as wolves will do nothing but harm our ecosystem just wait and see.
