Wolves Face Threats From Federal Government.

http://madmikesamerica.com/2010/11/take-a-stand-against-anti-wolf-legislation-sign-the-petition-now/ I find the targeting of wolves to be a crime against the natural order. Wolves are a part of a healthy eco-system. There preying upon wild game helps to keep the animal population in balance. And I would even argue that they have an even greater natural right to hunt than humans even, as they actually need meat to survive. Now I know that wolves will likely still exist, under the current laws. For there are wolf sanctuaries. http://www.fullmoonfarm.org/index.php Plus, here in Ohio, the law defines a dog as any canine with at least partial domesticated anscestry. So an animal which is 99% wolf, under our state's law, is classified as a dog. I happen to have a dog who's part wolf to some degree, so this particularly matters to me. But wolves should also be permitted to roam free in there natural habitat. Wolves are living creatures, not some trophies for some cruel sport. Now this does not mean that people should not be recognised as having the right to defend both themselves and there livestock from predators. As much as I am fond of both canines, and felines, if a cougar, coyote, and/or other wild cats, and dogs, attack one's family, I believe that the right to self defense enables one to kill them. But people should not go out looking for monsters to destroy. Just as we can not kill every terrorist in the world, we also can not kill all potential animal threats as well. The best in both cases is to simply keep them from invading our homes, and homeland. For this is a part of upholding reverence for life, for animals, and humans alike. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverence_for_Life
