		<description>Horace Greeley was the one who first said go west young man but a newspaper man from Indiana John Soule got the credit for it in 1851 but what was odd is he was pointing at the morning sunrise as he said it.</description>

		<description>Andrea,
You obviously don&#039;t have a clue as to what your talking about and I would expect as much from a person who has never lived the life. I hear this grap all the time from pro wolfies and it&#039;s the same old beat the dead horse syndrome.
 I agree with Mike you might be better off back in Indiana because you will never be able to hack the way of the westerner. I won&#039;t bore you with facts as you are totally brain washed and it would do no good to bother. Go east young girl go east.</description>

		<description>When and if wolves show up in Colorado we&#039;ll make damn sure they won&#039;t overpopulate down here.  They can&#039;t get out of my rifles range.  I regularly shoot out to 1000 yards.</description>

		<description>Andrea,
 Maybe you should goe back to Indiana. There are a lot of us out here that still live off of elk and deer, especially with this economy. The reason we think we have a right to the elk is because without sportsmens dollars to bring them back after the early 1900&#039;s there would not be any tto feed your little wolves. Most don&#039;t mind a few wolves but when they start thinning out to many deer, moose and elk we have a problem with that. Wolves kill for the hell of it and they maim and chase for something to do. Last winter we found several kills that had not been touched other than when the wolves brought it down. The biggest problem is people like yourself that think they know it all from what they&#039;ve read and hear from others that  are totally activist pro-wolf . Basically if your are so unhappy in Idaho you and the rest can move back to where you came from and leave us the hell alone. Our predators and prey were doing fine without you and yours.</description>

		<description>Right !  Wolves don&#039;t kill for sport, it was all the elk dying of constipation and blowing their own asses out with a massive fart that killed them, the wolves just happened to walk by and have a look, that would explain all the wolf tracks around all those dead elk carcasses littering the national forests..

That must be why several winter ranges no longer have elk wintering on them, they died of farting.  NO WONDER IDAHO FISH AND GAME CUT HUNTING TAG OPPORTUNITY IN ALL CONTROLLED HUNT UNITS BY 50% we have a farting elk epidemic.. And all those elk calves died from starving because mother elk farted herself to death..

Those poor over populated mistreated picked on wolves... are so innocent.

Ok, I  wonder who will win the bullshitting contest ?

I admit the possibility of several hundred, or thousand elk,  prematurely gave birth to their calves by forcing the calves out due to tired of being pregnant.  Wolves would never rip out, tear out, jerk out those little fetuses from the mother elk would they..  Of course not.

What the hell do people living in Idaho longer than two years know anyhow.. thanks for waking me up from my DREAM WORLD Andrea...</description>

		<description>It is not your RIGHT to shoot Elk.  It is not your RIGHT to eliminate natural competition for your enjoyment is shooting game. There is NO OTHER outdoor sport that would seek to eliminate a natural creature from the environment.
 If the Elk herds are on the decline, then there should be fewer hunting permits issued.  There should be wolf managment too, but this is a far cry from the desired all out zealous assalt I have seen advocatedin in the Idaho media from Butch Otter and countless other hunters in Idaho.  I used to think hunters were conservationists until I moved to Idaho 2 years ago.  I LOVE being in a state where there are still areas that are truly wild.
By the way- natural predators will the weak, the aged, and the under-adapted, in general, while hunters kill the biggest and strongest.  If Elk are on the decline in Idaho, MANAGE wolves, but stop supporting their all out slaughter,  stop villifying them, and reduce the number of Elk hunting permits issued.  That is how it would be for ANY other game permits.  I find it utterly bizarre that hunters can complain about wolves killing 10K Elk a year, and then want to go out at kill 20K themselves.  Wolves are trying to survive, they are not killing for sport.   If they overkill, their population suffers and they die off.  Not true for humans, who time and again have proven they would continue to kill until there&#039;s nothing left. So which one should cut their killing back?  I have never been so sickened and disgusted by anti-wolf articles until I moved out here.  I am from Indiana, where there is a large population of deer hunters, and I had no idea that there was such sickening, simplistic anti-wolf thinking still so alive and well in this country until I moved to Idaho.</description>

		<description>&quot; PS.
If hunters have the urge to kill here are some substitutions for wildlife: Yourself, work for Purdue or similar, Idaho legislature, child traffickers, your friends.&quot;

You left out some substitutions.</description>

		<description>My children,

Stop the fighting, a genocide on my beloved Canis Lupus is not a noble thing, its not a solution either. If you wish to see more elk and the like then merely stop hunting. Don&#039;t blame the noble creatures native to this land, after all wolves are more native than even the elk.

PS.
