They want to get them off the list just to put them back on by hunting them.

Ahh, that's fairly common practice - and when the endangered species act was passed, that wasn't the intent, but seems to be how it's used today.

Ugh...

It's a typical human attitude. "It's not like me, therefore it's worthless and ok to destroy."

Wait, wait, wait... What would the point of this even be? Food? Who the hell is going to eat a wolf? Sport? What sport? You see one, you point, you pull the trigger. How sporting. Give the wolf a gun and tell it you're coming and then maybe we'll talk about sporting. Or hell, if they want sporting, let's put the hunters on The Running Man. Now that's some exciting s***, surviving 30 days when the whole country wants you dead. Of course, the hunters would probably whine about it. "Oh, that isn't fair, I'm supposed to be nonchalantly killing other things for no other reason than I find it fun." But you know what, once you've signed up, you don't get a choice, damn it.

Basically... This. Is. Bullshit. You don't get an animal off of the endangered species list so you can get a chance to kill it. That's not how that works. What are they gonna kill next, some bald eagles? This Otter f*** needs to get voted out of office as soon as possible.

They are severely missing the point.

I remember the release of the wolves to Idaho...I had the dvd that shows the release..The nez perce tribes I know they surely have tried to stop this as they tried before when this law was put up..They looked after the wolves an even had tours there..The wolf population will increase as does the human population. Still though seeing as a health wolf has never attacked let alone kill a human, wat need is there to both a being who wants peace? Why stir with nature when it has it's own balance? Human are to Screwed an have the rest of the world in utter chaos so they decided to spread it to the wilderness..

It's almost like most of the human race looks for something to currupt, something to destroy..One mind set..POWER..over one..Especailly ones that can't speak an say help me, why are you doing this to me..I guess it's something that the few of us who have respect for this creature can only pray or send watever their way an hope for the best..I mean wat can we do against an army of wolf haters? There's more of them than wolf lovers..There's always more hate over love it seems..

"The world is like a ride in an amusement park. And when you choose to go on it you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. And the ride goes up and down and round and round. It has thrills and chills and it's very brightly coloured and it's very loud and it's fun, for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time and they begin to question: "Is this real, or is this just a ride?" And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, they say, "Hey, don't worry, don't be afraid, ever, because this is just a ride." And we kill those people." - Bill Hicks

I think we should have an open season year-round for idiots like these
