Why Wolves Should Stay

Decent Essays
Dear commercial Interests, In my opinion I say wolves should stay because They have two fancisinting ways to communicate to their pack.The first way wolves communicate to their pack is by yelping to communicate to their pack or howling if you ever get to hear a wolf howling it is how they communicate to their pack.If you shoot a wolf the wolf will make a whimper sound and that shows that they are in danger.Also,Biologists believe that wolves should be in yellowstone park because the wolves in yellowstone park help control the animal population by eating them.For example,If there was no more wolves and their was only sheep then the sheep will eat all of the producers like plants and the plants won't grow because the sheep keep on stepping on

    The reason why i chose scenario four is that as a restaurant owner i think that it would be bad to have wolves around and if anything was to happen to the tourist then the park would be at fault to any injury. Scenario four helps to keep any issues with the wolves local and it doesn't involve the federal government. Wolves are a big attraction in yellowstone it would be a great thing that the wolves attracted tourist and being a restaurant owner the business could benefit from the tourism. I feel like the business would attack people as well as wolves the reason why i think that the business could attract wolves is that the wolves could be attracted to the smell of food. People would be worried that they could possibly be attacked by wolves…

    Clayton Hull-Crew stated, “When one animal is removed, specifically a powerful player in its ecosystem, not only does their niche become available, but many others collapse. Every spot occupied in a system relies on every other. Waterfowl rely on frogs and tadpoles for food, those frogs spawn in still waters provided by beavers, and beavers rely on flora to eat and use as building materials. That fits the usual bottom-up model of ecosystems, but who protects the flora for beavers? In this case, it turned out to be wolves.”…

    This left the Montana wolf population about 554 wolves, which was a decline of 12 percent. Any wolf hunters who intend to travel to the state to hunt in the next season will be following the current laws and regulations. Wolf advocacy groups say that they are happy the state is not going to lower the protection status of the wolves living in Montana. Groups like the Defenders of Wildlife's Rockies and Plains (www.conservemontana.org) program want the wolves in Montana treated like any other wildlife and don’t want them to be prosecuted.…

    The dire wolf, or Canis dirus, is a wolf that lived during the Pleistocene Epoch (2.6 million to 11,700 years ago) and became extinct between 10,000 to 16,000 years ago during the ice age. It was native to North America and thousands of Dire Wolf skeletons were found and stored in La Brea tar pits in southern California, where it is believed to be the most common mammal in the area. Remains of the Dire wolf have also been found across a broad range of habitats in North America, which include the plains, grasslands, and some mountain areas in North America, and the savannah of South America. The average height in elevation is 7,400 feet above sea level (The Editors of Encyclopedia Britannica). In the United States, dire wolf fossils have been…

    While some let out a breath of relief over the relocation, others complained that the Wolves were too close and could navigate their way into human-inhabited areas. Yellowstone Park was not always a safe haven for the Wolves, back during 1914 up 'till 1926; nearly one hundred and forty Wolves were killed by park rangers through use of poisoned carcasses (Swinburne 11). Sadly, Wolves native to Yellowstone Park are in no better conditions or have any better protection from Hunters or Farmers then the Wolves located outside Yellowstone Park. Since Gray Wolf reintroduction to the ecosystem, there have been numerous changes. A visible increase of Cottonwood, Willow, and Grass regrowth rates has been observed in the areas near known Wolf hunting locations (Smith 119-121).…

    Between 1977 and 1980, the last five wolves were captured from Mexico in order to be put into a breeding program in the U.S. (Southwest Wildlife). A recovery plan was approved by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service in 1982 and by 1996 an official EIS (Environmental Impact Statement) was released. On March 29, 1998, after years of breeding programs, wolves were released into the BRWRA (Blue Range Wolf Recovery Area) (Progress Report). Thirteen wolves were released but of these thirteen, five were shot, which just goes to show how controversial this project has been since its implementation (Tangley). Wolves are still being released today and populations are rising, though very slowly.…

    One of the most renowned rewilding projects which has demonstrated the effects rewilding has on a whole ecosystem, was the reintroduction of grey wolves (Canis lupus) into Yellowstone National Park in the North West of the United States. The wolves were reintroduced to the park in 1995-1996 and have subsequently recolonised the whole park and some of the surrounding area known as the greater Yellowstone ecosystem (GYE) (Smith et al., 2003). The reintroduction of the wolves has had a great effect on the ecosystem of Yellowstone; the wolves have greatly reduced the numbers of ungulates, especially Elk which have been found to support the wolf packs almost entirely (Smith et al., 2003). The wolves have also had an effect on many of the other organisms…

    Many ranchers are frustrated with ranching in a wolf reintroduction area. Ranchers and farmers still have livestock in the wolf recovery region. “Wolf depredations on livestock have occurred every year since 1999 — one year after the re-introduction of Mexican wolves into the wild. ”(Balcomb, 2017, para. 22) Many farmers don’t apply for help from the USDA for depredations on livestock due to all the bureaucratic red-tape and the depredation fund has no money to repay ranchers. People who live far enough away from the reintroduction area are happy for the wolf reintroduction.…

    It would be promising to see the error caused by man corrected. With the wolves helping to keep the ecosystem in order, aiding in keeping both the land and herd animals healthy, could only be a benefit to Colorado as a whole. The additional money coming into Colorado as ecotourism increases could provide additional support for parks and recreation within the state. Having read a Park Ranger’s actual account of conversing with a particular visitor, relaying her appreciation and excitement, not to mention the impact seeing the wolves made on her Girl Scout Troop, it is hard to think of reintroduction of wolves in Colorado as anything but a positive choice (McIntyre). It would be wonderful to camp in the mountains of Colorado with the anticipation of possibly hearing wolves…

    Wild animals are keeping in captivity for different reasons and in different places like zoos, circus and for researches. In my opinion, I am not like animals keeping in captivity for any reason because they are also living things like us. Animals kept in captivity are like a good family outing to some people but for others, it is like an animal is a cell of prison. The discussion of whether or not animals should be held in captivity is one that will not stop. The discussions go both ways.…
