	We're canadians, we probably have more hunters than any other country in the world. Our entire country is like 50% forest, and we're the biggest country in the world.

	Right, we're the second biggest country. Still, it's not a big surprise that a country covered in forest has hunters living in it. We hunt, we see preys, and we kill.

	Wolves are beautiful and all, and the stuff of legend and whatnot. But they're also problematic when there are concerns with livestock and they ALSO take a heavy toll on the indigenous game species such as deer, elk, moose, etc. Coyotes are also bad news in this respect and put considerable pressure on the deer populations in lots of areas. A wolf that size is also more than readily able to kill a human. -----signature----- If ignorance were painful, half the posters here would be on morphine drips.

	If it was legal for him, in his area, to shoot the damn thing, then I'm fine with it. I don't sport hunt and don't support it, but if some people enjoy it as a hobby, who am I to criticize.

	There is also hunting that is actually beneficial overall to the ecosystem that doesn't bring "edible" meat to the table. Example: coyotes. In Pennsylvania for example, you can kill coyotes all day every day except Sundays all year long as far as I know. They have a huge impact on the livestock and on the whitetail deer population. -----signature----- If ignorance were painful, half the posters here would be on morphine drips.

	Well I'm sure it's all interrelated to encroachment of humanity on habitat, possibly climate change, possibly over hunting, a whole litany of possible causes for things like that. Predator hunting has traditionally been a way to help try to balance things. Don't get me wrong, I'm not in favor of outright cruelty. Dying instantly or over the course of 5 minutes when shot with a rifle is a damn sight less cruel than dying of starvation over a long winter when all the food is gone... -----signature----- If ignorance were painful, half the posters here would be on morphine drips.

If people want to raise livestock and settle new areas that were once wilderness, and/or log areas that were once undisturbed timber, then there will be encroachment issues.

	Wonder how many more he needs to kill to turn in his quest. And I wonder if it had any rare loot on it. Joking aside, wow that thing is big. I wonder if animals are pretty much going to be at the sizes they're at now, since anything that gets big via natural selection is no doubt going to end up being a hunter, or more likely, poacher's prize catch. For instance, elephants in Africa are starting to grow smaller and smaller tusks because the ones that have big ones get shot and killed, while the poachers there leave the ones with smaller tusks alone (for the most part), which allow them to survive and pass on their genes. If this keeps up, in a few hundred years (or even decades if it goes that bad), there probably won't be anymore elephants around with large tusks anymore. Same thing with fish. Fishermen like to catch big fish, and throw the little ones back (I know, most do it for sport and usually release it back, but just a generalization here), which means the bigger ones will be harder to find as time goes on since the little ones are the only ones around to reproduce. I think wolves and other predators are necessary because otherwise their prey could potentially grow unchecked, which could lead to a lot of other problems, such as overpopulation and a lack of enough food, which would cause more problems for them in the long run. And just having open season on them every few years to cull the population probably wouldn't work since hunters would probably leave smaller game alone that the wolves also hunt. That said, yes, if the wolves are threatening livestock, then yes, chase them off or kill them if they're too aggressive towards humans/livestock. But hopefully no one's killing them for the lulz and pictures. -----signature----- (none)

	Halloweve posted: @imaloon Did you read the part where i said "unless it is harming your property" ? Property includes cattle. Read before you throw out insults. You are a loon. Don't care... The fact that you would put another top tier predator ahead of people is enough to tell me you haven't the foggiest idea wtf you're talking about. FYI Game animals aren't anybody's property but they do need protection from top tier predators like that grey wolf or really any wolf for that matter. -----signature----- The time draws nearer to your fate

	@Imaloon Top tier predator..lol, that would be man. Governments protected and will in the future protect them again. And yep, it's easy to see you don't care. You are quick to insult without even thinking out what you are saying. That hunter probably used bait, probably a helicoptor or airplane. That is not even sportsmanly. He has a goofy ass look on his face like he is king. If what he did needed to be done for the sake of his cattle..fine..don't freakin gloat that you have conqured an old man in the tribe. I don't have a problem with hunters..you only assumed I did because you say before asking. I do have a problem with the way this picture has been presented. I find it disgusting. Someday their will be no majestic animals for our grandchildren to see in nature. Maybe they will be caged in a zoo. All because of man. Again..you will only insult rather than actually read what was said. It is your way. How sad for you. -----signature----- (none)

	Halloweve posted: That hunter probably used bait In truth, one of the wolf photos in this thread shows a wolf that was reportedly witnessed by a bear hunter. The bear hunter was watching his bear bait station and he supposedly watched this huge wolf run off a bear that had come to the bait station to feed. We can argue about the use of bait and various hunting tactics all day long if you like. I personally don't think bait hunting is all that sporting either, but don't mind using it for pest animals (hogs, wolves, coyotes, etc.) in areas where they're a problem, but in the end, hunting regulations and laws are about conservation and ensuring the ecosystem is healthy and that there is game to hunt as well as enough game for the various species' to prosper. -----signature----- If ignorance were painful, half the posters here would be on morphine drips.

	It's not the first time they had wolves that big up there. I really don't think its shopped. If you let them roam long enough in the wild with an abundance of food for them to eat, it's quite possible for some wolves to reach a bigger than average size -----signature----- "Sir, when you die, what shall we do?
