All very good points Strategia. However, since I grew up on a cattle ranch (and still spend a lot of my time there), the human/wolf interaction is not the only consideration.

We refuse to leave the wolves alone, or just scare them off when they're chowing down on a calf that is in the process of being born.

Bears. Another animal that gets shot around here. Why? Same reason as above, and because a bear will kill you. Just in the past month, a couple people have been killed by bear attacks and a couple more seriously maimed, one quite near to where I live. Disney has been a horrible influence on a generation or two of kids in North America (and most likely beyond). Most kids and adults today think animals are cute, cuddly things to be played with as is portrayed in too many movies. No offense to any city people, but city people are the worst for things like this. They don't have the interaction with these predators, and don't know how dangerous they can be to life and property.
