Now it's the wolves turn again

Yet again the US Fish and Wildlife Service has shown itself inadequate to the task. Having seen the reintroduction of gray wolves into the Rocky Mountains result in modest rises in wolf population, with 1,513 wolves in Montana, Wyoming and Idaho combined, including 107 breeding pairs, according to Edward Bangs, western wolf recovery coordinator for the US Fish and Wildlife Service, Bangs and his fellow public servants have decided that there's now plenty and it's ok to remove protection from them, thus allowing the sick deviants who get some kind of kick from killing these beautiful animals to shoot, trap and poison them under what is euphemistically called the state wildlife management plan.

You would have to be some kind of inadequate to want to harm this beautiful creature. The US, unfortunately, has plenty of sick inadequates. Idaho and Wyoming have stated their intention to kill the majority of wolves living within their borders, so those state's governments should be targeted with as much protest as possible. Idaho's governor, CL 'Butch' Otter, publicly announced his intention to kill more than 80% of the state's wolves, and the state has already begun planning large scale wolf eradication efforts through hunting and aerial gunning.

You can see from the pictures on this site http://gov.idaho.gov/ what a bunch of backward cowboys these people are. He doubtless feels really butch when he kills a beautiful wolf from a distance with a powerful rifle with telescopic sights, but actually he's a pathetic waste of space and conerned about his rancher friends' profits [despite Defenders of Wildlife paying all livestock farmers for their losses http://www.defenders.org/index.php]. You can contact 'Butch' here http://gov.idaho.gov/WebRespond/contact_form.html where an email form enables Americans to write to him,as the form only allows the choice of US states, I assume he isn't aware there's a big world beyond America, or maybe he just isn't interested in anyone else.

Wyoming's wolf management plan would allow 16 of the existing 23 packs of the wolves in the state to be killed on sight. To accomplish this goal, the state would authorize poisoning, trapping and shooting within 90 percent of the wolf's current home range outside of the national parks. Montana has a more balanced conservation-oriented plan, but it still threatens that state’s wolf population.

Anyone wanting to let them know what you think of this regressive move, especially, but not exclusively, Americans, should write here.
