Eleven have been slaughtered so far with guns fired from a helicopter after one wolf pack had‘beef for dinner’ at least 10 times over the winter months and another killed 19 elk and 19 cows.
US policy driven by the powerful rancher lobby spending millions of dollars every year means a violent end for the genetic link to man’s best friend, even though there’s a debate as to whether wolves keep cattle herds healthier by culling out the weak links that are slow and dumb enough to be eaten.
Popular Science magazine, in an article titled Stop Shooting Wolves, You Maniacs, cited 2010 US Department of Agriculture figures that show they were one of the least deadliest predators for cattle, killing 8,100. In comparison, the wily coyotes successfully dropped their Acme anvils on 116,700, dogs 21,800, big cats 18,900, and vultures 11,900.
