Double edge, controversial right? Biology and studies and opinions are supposed to be like that.

Well read on the situation in Yellowstone and Idaho about the reintroduced wolves. Peronally I love them untill they stay out of my house.

They reproduced so greatly that they are really effecting the ecosystem (like a spirall) but again i haven't look too close into it..although I should

The North American Grey Wolf has done extremely well.  As a matter of fact it has grown in such great numbers that this yr they will be allowed to be hunted.  This is due to them encroaching into populated areas as well as become threats to farm animals.

Some may say the hunting is bad.  But it is actually a positive sign and will be healthy to the packs by allowing the larger more mature (mainly male) wolves to be harvested.  Allowing the younger ones to infuse DNA from other packs.

About Scotland?  If overpopulation is an issue then spay and neuter most of those released.

Just some thoughts,

Aren't there tons of rabbits in Scotland too? That is one of the things i remember when i was there.We were driving along the road and I remember them running across the road all over the place. I miss it there.Most beautiful contryside I have seen.I hope to go there again and if there are wolves roaming even more of an insentive. Also would be nice to see my family there too. If they do reintroduce them I hope that the sheep ranchers have some way to protect the sheep so there aren't issues and the ones introduced get killed cause they went for a sheep.

Tuff, I assumed that the hunting season was withdrawn because of last month's ruling to maintain the wolf's status under the federal endangered species act.
Today’s ruling makes it clear this wolf population cannot be delisted until the State of Wyoming has instituted an adequate management program, similar to those of Idaho and Montana.
