“that same history shows that the tribes also retained the right to conserve and protect the key species they relied upon for their livelihood, to maintain healthy populations of those species, and to ensure their continued existence.”
Wolves figure prominently in the mythology of nearly every Native American tribe so it's understandable to want to preserve the wolf. And I can respect it.
That said, the above quote from the article does furrow my brow a bit. I know there are exceptions where conservation on tribal lands exists (generally in the name of commerce), but true conservation on the majority of lands is utter fiction.
WI needs a wolf hunt. And so does MN for that matter.
I am not a proponent of wiping the wolf from the landscape, but dang, common sense needs to prevail surrounding the wolf population.
