FUCKING RIDICULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Off Endangered List: The federal government announced Thursday that gray wolves will no longer be protected under the Endangered Species Act after their numbers increased sharply in the Northern Rockies following a 13-year restoration effort."
Guess how many they estimate? 1500. 1500?!
This is where they are now:
This is where they WERE:
FUCK THE STUPID GOVERNMENT! Are we really gonna screw over a 13 year effort to save an entire species!? Every hunter and his mother is gonna go out and have a field day. To "save their cattle". Gee, heard of a shepard? Or a guard dog? Cattle dog maybe?
This fucking makes me cry. Goddamn ridiculous. Wolves don't deserve this bullshit. They were here first. Does anyone know man's best friend is descendant from wolves? Boy we'll buy our pets clothing and all kinds of shit but it's too much to ask to protect the animal they came from.
Wolves do not hunt for fun. One in TEN attempts at a kill are successful. Thus the term "wolfing it down" came to be because they gorge themselves on the kill they do make. One kill for a whole pack for a period of weeks. They take down the SICKLY, OLD, and INJURED aniamls. That's called "suvival of the fittest" and "natural selection" guys. Look it up! What's going to happen? MURDER!
Please people, help save our wolves.

Wolf Quotations
"You ought to follow the example of shunk-tokecha (wolf).
Even when he is surprised and runs for his life,
he will pause to take one more look at you
before he enters his final retreat.
So you must take a second look
at everything you see."
Ohiyesa
Wolf I am, Everything in darkness Will be good
In light because Maheo
Wherever I search Protects us
Wherever I run Ea ea ea ho.
Song of a Cheyenne Scout
"We listened for a voice crying in the wilderness.
And we heard the jubilation of wolves!"
Durwood L. Allen
"I've always said that the best wolf habitat resides in the human heart.
You have to leave a little space for them to live."
Ed Bangs
"Throughout the centuries we have projected on to the wolf the qualities we most despise and fear in ourselves."
Barry Lopez
"Wolves housed in cages which are far too small,
are still among the most pitiful of all caged animals."
Conrad Lorenz, King Solomon's Ring, 1952
"Wolves may feature in our myths,
our history and our dreams,
but they have their own future,
their own loves,
their own dreams to fufill."
Anthony Miles
"To look into the eyes of a wolf is to see your own soul"
Aldo Leopold
"Inescapably, the realization was being borne in upon my preconditioned mind that the centuries-old and universally accepted human concept of wolf character was a palpable lie. On three separate occasions in less than a week I had been completely at the mercy of these 'savage killers'; but far from attempting to tear me limb from limb, they had displayed a restraint verging on contempt, even when I invaded their home and appeared to be posing a direct threat to the young pups."
Farley Mowat - Never Cry Wolf
"The gaze of the wolf reaches into our soul."
Barry Lopez
"We humans fear the beast within the wolf
because we do not understand the beast within ourselves."
Gerald Hausman
"The caribou feeds the wolf,
but it is the wolf who keeps the caribou strong."
Keewation Proverb
"To look into the eyes of a wolf is to see your own soul
- hope you like what you see."
Aldo Leopold
"If the wolf is to survive, the wolf haters must be outnumbered. They must be outshouted, out financed, and out voted. Their narrow and biased attitude must be outweighed by an attitude based on an understanding of natural processes."
L. David Mech
"Throw me to the wolves because there's order in the pack."
Red Hot Chili Peppers, Easily
"Anyone who has ever heard it when the land was covered with a blanket of snow and elusively lighted by shimmering moonlight, will never forget the strange, trembling wolf cry."

"The wolf is neither man's competitor nor his enemy.
He is a fellow creature with whom the earth must be shared."
L. David Mech
"Now this is the Law of the Jungle- as old and as true as the sky;
And the Wolf that shall keep it may prosper,
but the Wolf that shall break it must die."
Rudyard Kipling (1865- 1936)
'The Law of the Jungle'
"On the ragged edge of the world I'll roam,
and the home of the wolf shall be my home."

Russian Proverb
"For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf,
and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack."
Rudyard Kipling
"Only a mountain has lived long enough to listen objectively to the howl of a wolf."
Aldo Leopold
"We have doomed the Wolf not for what it is, but for what we have deliberately and mistakenly perceived it to be.. the mythologized epitome of a savage, ruthless killer.. which is, in reality no more than a reflexed image of ourself."
Farely Mowat
"They say the wolf bestows its happy spirit to help people. Women who obtain this spirit become skilled in creative endevours and experience a strengthening of the senses. I would like to think there is some truth to this in my own life."
Judi Rideout
"How lonely is the night without the howl of a wolf."
