Wolves were never extinct ranchers I met during my years in Idaho all agreed .
The need for planting packs of wolves was all a lie .
One rancher told me about riding a 110cc honda atc in sw idaho owyhee desert - just sight seeing - riding the fun little atv . Came over the top of a hill and 6 wolves ran off of a muledeer kill this was in the late 70's . He shut it off and grabbed his binos - said they ran about 500 yards stopped and stared back for a minute then trotted off into the sagebrush . Said he had seen wolves down there his whole life , had family in nevada who had seen them too .
The whole wolf thing was a liberal pushed gov't backed BS operation .
Who here doesn't know how many times the gov't has put critters here & there trying to help something and their help turns into to an environmental disaster . . . .
