You, obviously, are not living out in the rural parts of America, where the 're-wilding' is taking place, and the wolves, coyotes, and feral hogs are over-running the farm and ranch-land here.
Do your 'hood, and our country, a favor - kill a predator today (and tomorrow, and the next day.)

If you live out in the wilderness, then you should be prepared to deal with the creatures that inhabit that area when necessary, but to think that you can fucking kill everything there because YOU want to live there is about the same mentality that Israel is using today in Gaza.
Wolves, bears, cougars, and hogs, are not human beings
So? To kill for food is even beyond what some believe in, but is understandable for a native people living in their native land if there IS no other food.
However, to kill for the hell of it because those creatures MIGHT be causing a problem with the "food" animals is beyond sadistic. If there were REAL evidence that predators were killing off a large number of those other animals, then perhaps something might need to be done in order to protect the "food" animals for those who depend on those animals, but to try to play God is beyond pale.
Again, disregard for life leads to what IS happening in Gaza. I doubt there would be the bloodshed going on there that we are witnessing today if the Israelis cared about life as much as the Essenes did (and do).
I don't know the situation out there. I don't think that just killing the wolves for the fun of it would be right. I think that the local people should make their own decisions. They have first hand knowldege and should decide.

That's the problem here.. this is being done mostly by Out of Stater's, that spend big money, to have the joy of a kill. Most don't even eat the meat nor keep their kill. The last report I got on this issue, was most of the kills, end up dog food.. and that pisses me off to no end.. As that gives Gun Grabbers an in, to use against Hunting and the 2nd Amendment.

There are lots of people who ignore the hunting regulations. You must salvage the hide and have it sealed within 30 days of the kill in most game management units.

The hunting regulations are for the benefit of whom exactly?
Do you really think there are so many hunters that they could if they wanted to make wolves extinct? Are wolves in any way whatsoever in any danger of going extinct? If not then the regulations are just a way for the state to get more money out of people through fines. Do you like the idea of someone telling you that you cannot do something on your own property that is hurting no one else? And how are the enforcement of these regulations suppose to occur? Cameras set everywhere to watch your every move, or are they just going to rely on people turning their neighbors in?
The hunting regulations are for the benefit of whom exactly?
The wildlife of Alaska and the people of Alaska who depend on a robust wildlife population.
Do you really think there are so many hunters that they could if they wanted to make wolves extinct?
NO.
Are wolves in any way whatsoever in any danger of going extinct?
No.

I do not hunt wolves on my own property.
And how are the enforcement of these regulations suppose to occur?
In the usual manner. People are reported breaking the law, people are confronted by enforcers for breaking the law.
Cameras set everywhere to watch your every move, or are they just going to rely on people turning their neighbors in?
Haven't run into a single camera out in the bush and my neighbors have never accused anyone falsely.
