    Extractions: It's morally, ethically, and environmentally wrong to force ranchers, farmers, and rural residents to suffer the risk and depradations of wolves just so some urban dweller who never has to deal with the problems can get the warm and fuzzy feel-goods about nature. MacLir February 2nd, 2005, 03:05 PM Why is a rancher in wolf country like a 747? I'll bury it in text so it doesn't jump right out at you. Remember the wolves were there first. I was really hoping that the discussion on re-introduction of wolves would go on longer than it did, because they were already coming in on their own. Answer - they both whine all the way to Hawaii. Had the wolves finished returning to a breeding population without re-introduction, they would be considered an endangered species on its home range, and fully protected, instead of an experimental population re-introduced to historic range, and subject to controls for depredation.

    Extractions: From Animal Issues , Volume 34 Number 4, Winter 2003 The War Against Wolves By Brian Vincent This past April Fools' Day, animal advocates wondered if the joke was on them. That's because on April 1, 2003, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) released a rule lowering the protected status of gray wolves under the federal Endangered Species Act (ESA). Despite the fact that wolves, once systematically extirpated, have yet to recover in most of their historic range, this reclassification is likely just the first step in the eventual elimination of all federal protections for gray wolves in the lower 48 states. Once de-listed, the species' fate would lie in the hands of individual states. The FWS is currently reviewing draft wolf management plans in several states, including Idaho, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. The federal agency must approve these plans before transferring authority for wolf management to the states. Unfortunately, all of these plans allow sport hunting and trapping of wolves and favor lethal control of "problem" wolves rather than non-lethal preventive measures resurrecting the very threats that pushed the species to the brink of extinction.

The maned wolf is being held in zoos and parks to save it from extiction. Many wolves are being hunted for their fur, but also, sometimes because they attack farm animals. The Gray Wolf This wolf is believed to be the ancestors of our domestic dogs. But it is hunted for it's beautiful fur. It is about 6ft in length including his tail. There pack has about 20 wolves. If there is no food the large pack splits up in tiny groups of about 7 wolves. The Desert Wolf Same as the gray wolf, the Desert wolf is hunted for it's fur. This wolf is also in danger of extinction. In the movie "Dances With Wolves", Two Socks, the wolf, is a desert wolf. In this movie, though, it is killed for fun.

(MPR file photo) Thirty years ago, gray wolves were nearly extinct in the lower 48 states. The gray wolf has been on the endangered species list since 1974. Now, U.S. Fish and Wildlife officials say the animal has made a remarkable recovery. At a hearing in Bemidji Tuesday night, the agency took public testimony on a proposal to remove endangered species protections and turn gray wolf management over to the states. But not everyone favors removing gray wolves from federal protection.

    Extractions: own property, and caretake our wildlife and natural resources. Federal protections are back in force in Oregon and the West, derailing a state recovery plan that's up for a vote Wednesday, February 02, 2005 MICHAEL MILSTEIN The Bush administration illegally weakened protections for gray wolves before their return to Oregon and neighboring states, a federal judge has found. U.S. District Judge Robert E. Jones of Portland rescinded a 2003 federal rule that allowed ranchers to kill wolves attacking their livestock and to harass wolves for any reason. His action restored their status as a fully endangered species in Oregon. It means that wolves may retain strict federal protection until they have expanded across much more of the West than Idaho, Wyoming and Montana, states at the core of the government's recovery program. That includes Oregon, where their recovery may become a greater priority.

    Extractions: WASHINGTON, D.C. - A federal appeals court in Richmond has let stand a decision upholding federal regulations that prohibit the killing of red wolves, a rare species protected under the Endangered Species Act. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4 th Circuit on August 25 denied a request for the full court to reconsider a panel decision upholding the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service regulations. "This decision means that the agency can continue to carry out its landmark program to bring back the red wolves in North Carolina," said Lois Schiffer, the Assistant Attorney General for the Environment at the Justice Department. Two property owners and two counties in North Carolina had challenged the federal regulations, asserting that the Fish and Wildlife Service did not have authority under the U.S. Constitution to prohibit the killing of endangered wolves in North Carolina. The 4 th Circuit panel on June 6 rejected this argument, finding that the Service was within its authority under the Commerce Clause of the Constitution. The Court found that the relationship between the killing of red wolves and interstate commerce is "quite direct," observing that without red wolves, there would be no red wolf-related tourism or scientific research.

It says the decision is necessary to protect domestic livestock, but one campaign group has condemned the cull. WWF-Norway says two wolves have been shot already, one of them from a pack which has not been targeted and which it fears may now not manage to survive. Wolves are protected in Norway, and are listed as critically endangered, and WWF says many people oppose the cull. The decision to kill five animals out of the 20 remaining in Norway was taken by the nature directorate, which advises the government. WWF-Norway is calling for an immediate halt to the hunt. Survival 'at risk' Its head, Rasmus Hansson, said: "If the Norwegian environment minister does not stop this hunt, he will have the dubious honour of allowing the regular hunting of a nationally endangered species.

The gray wolf has recently been downlisted to "lower risk" by the IUCN Wolves inevitably prefer wild game to livestock. In North America, bison, deer, elk, moose, and beaver head the wolf's menu. This underlines the importance of reintroducing natural prey in areas where wolves are being restored. In accounts from the last two centuries, wolves were often begrudgingly admired by their human executioners. Many stories portray them avoiding traps, refusing bait, and dodging bullets. Wolves can make themselves vomit at the first sign of nausea or irritation. Until the development of strychnine, they were considered almost impossible to poison.

The Arctic Wolf eats moose, fish, other wolves, polar bears, lemmings, walrus and bunnies. It will attack people and any other animals. Other wolves and humans are the Artic Wolve's enemies. Wolves drink cool water. Their colours blend in with the gray, green and brown colours of the forest. The Arctic Wolf has a thick layer of fur and their teeth are really sharp to help them kill their prey. The Arctic Wolf shelters is in the forests of the Arctic. Wolves live in Canada from Labrador to British Columbia and in the Yukon and Northwest Territories. They loose their habitat because of cutting trees, pollution and garbage. At least 196 wolves a year are killed. I am trying to get people to save them by encouraging them to write letters to their governments.

    Extractions: January 22, 2003 By late spring or early summer, the United States Fish and Wildlife Service may propose removing the western population of gray wolf from the endangered species list. After delisting, states would inherit responsibility for managing the wolf populations outside the national parks, as they do for black bear, deer, elk and mountain lion. "We are wheeling the gray wolf out of the emergency room and into long-term care," says Ed Bangs, a biologist and a coordinator of the USFWS wolf recovery program in Helena, Mont. Delisting would not signal open season on wolves, according to Bangs. "There would probably be more liberal taking of problem wolves," he says, "and a regulated public hunting season." The gray wolf once was the most widely distributed large predator in North America. By 1930 the wolf had almost vanished from the 48 contiguous states, leaving only a small population in the Midwest.

    Extractions: The gray wolf (Canis lupus), However, as humans took over wolf habitat, they often exterminated the animals. By the beginning of the 20th century, settlers had rendered wolves practically extinct in the continental United States, in part because of the assumption that wolves were responsible for the loss of livestock, but also because of the general notion that wildlife was detrimental to progress and that large carnivores were considered cruel. Indeed, as humans simultaneously took over wolf habitat, filled the habitat with livestock, and depleted the staples of the wolf's traditional diet (deer, elk, caribou, and bison), the wolf turned to sheep and cattle to supplement its diet. The wolf eats a varied diet: When in packs, wolves will successfully bring down larger mammals such as bison, elk, deer, musk oxen, and moose. (They tend to focus on ill, old, or weak members of a herd.) Conversely, a solitary wolf will hunt smaller animals such as beavers and rabbits. A wolf may travel as far as 30 miles in a single, 24-hour period (often at night) to find prey. The carcasses left behind serve an important ecosystem function, as they provide fodder for such scavengers as wolverines, vultures, foxes, and sometimes bears.

Timber Wolf Main Page The sound of a howling timber wolf is becoming a more common event in Wisconsin. A growing population, of wolves now live in Wisconsin, one of about a dozen states in the country where timber wolves exist in the wild. Timber wolves, also called gray wolves, are the largest wild members of the dog family. Males are usually bigger than females. Timber wolves have silvery gray-brown backs, light tan and cream underparts, and bushy tails. In winter, their fur becomes darker on the neck, shoulders, and rump. How can you tell the difference between a timber wolf and a coyote or a large dog? Size is a key difference between coyotes and wolves. A coyote is only half as big as a wolf. Wolves can be distinguished by tracks and various physical features. A wolf and other wild canids usually places its hind foot in the track left by the front foot, whereas a dog's front and hind foot tracks usually do not overlap each other. Wolves also differ from most dogs by having a narrower chest, longer legs, large feet, large head with cheek hair tufts, tail held down or straight but not curled, black tipped tail, and black spot on back of the tail.
