Wolves Are Part Of The Balance Of Nature
Why Kill Them Wolves and other animals are the very balance of nature and yet the nature of humans is to kill everything that is in their way. I would be interested in everyone's opinion.

Wolves are a part of the balance of nature and should be treated as such. If wolves steal domestic animals for food, it simply means that they have been pushed to their limit.
If wolves are killed simply because humans believe they are a nuisance, it isn't right! If the predator population drops and the herbivore population rises too much the balance of nature won't be the same and we will have more problems than we did before.

They are a part of the balance of nature. If they are causing trouble to humans, then it's alright to kill them. BUT if we kill them for no good reason, then it's bad.

But it is a cold hard fact that they are needed in nature to balance everything out.

 It depends on what the humans kill them for... If they kill wolves simply because people believe the wolves are stealing "their" game, I believe that the humans should NEVER kill wolves for such a reason... Besides wolves are endangered, if we push them to their limit, our generations to come may never be able to experience their beauty...

It is unconscionable that wolves have been delisted as endangered in the U.S.
If there was ever a blatant example of special interests -- in this case, Rockies ranchers with huge spreads -- pressuring politician to knuckle under, this is one of them.
Any biologist will tell you that the number of calves and lambs taken by wolves is miniscule, if -- and this is a huge “if” -- their natural prey hasn’t been decimated. Due to urbanization of the Upper Rockies, wolves have been pushed to the extreme as deer and other prey disappear.
Historically, there have been virtually no instances worldwide of wolves attacking humans. The whole werewolf legend is just that -- wolves would only attack a child if pressed to extreme hunger, and they certainly do not have supernatural powers!
No, in my book, cattle should be outlawed in the West, not wolves and equally set-upon coyotes.

I agree, but God did make animals for us to eat, and to keep us company.
Killing them only for their furs is wrong.
If you kill one, you better be eating them, too.
