The world Conservation Union (IUCN) Wolf Specialists Group listed below or several excerpts from their “Bible”

The maintenance of wolves in some areas may require that society at large bear the cost, e.g., by giving compensation for the loss of domestic and semi domestic animals. Conversely, there are areas having high agricultural value where it is not desirable to maintain wolves without some form of control and where their recovery would not be feasible.

10. In some areas there has been a marked change in public attitudes towards the wolf. This change in attitudes has influenced governments to revise and even to eliminate archaic laws. It is recognized that education to establish a realistic picture of the wolf and its role in nature is most essential to wolf survival. Education programs, however, must be factual and accurate.

11. Socioeconomic, ecological and political factors must be considered and resolved prior to reintroduction of the wolf into biologically suitable areas from which it has been extirpated. Natural recovery, however, should be given priority according to the IUCN Reintroduction Guidelines.

We have to keep asking ourselves just how often the citizens were lied to over the past 13-plus years about wolves, reintroduction, management and the aim of removing the wolf from federal protection.
********************

I truly wish people would read Michael Robinson’s Predatory Bureaucracy and then form an opinion on “if wolves should have been “reintroduced.”

What right did the feds have to exterminate the wolf from the West in the first place? You can’t say it wasn’t exterminated. There were NO wolves left and many other predators) by time the livestock industry and the feds were done trapping them, poisoning them, and otherwise destroying them.

No credible view is that they were not intentionally exterminated.
