That is a wide brush you paint with.

Some do. Those that belong to protected species do.

Why do people just spout off stuff like this without thinking?

Any more Grand Canyon or other unusual, i.e. out of normal range wolf sightings?

They're seeing them in Northern Illinois where I grew up now. At least 50+ miles south of the Wisconsin border. Also seeing cougar fyi. I would HIGHLY suspect it goes further south than that. This is based upon actual shootings, sightings from people I know that know what they are seeing as well as DNR trapping etc. etc. etc.

Sad to look back at some of the posts in this thread where someone condemns both culture and necessity from the safety of their grocery store and suburbia. All while calling everyone else stupid for not being and living exactly like they are.

The problem there is that most people have never walked even a few steps in someone else's shoes, let a lone a mile.

P.S. Also numerous Cougar around the Kansas City area. I personally saw one about 4 miles west of downtown KC and there are a bunch of other sightings if you google.

I am all for predator recovery. I sure hope these are not liberated pets for a bunch of reasons:
  1. Former pets have no fear of man;
  2. Former pets regard homes as a food source; and
  3. Former pets don't have the social or hunting skills to survive in the wild, and tend to become dangerous.

It also will be wolf season.

I believe that wolf and coyote killing should be limited; just enough to instill fear of man in these animals.
