- raxxorrax 6y agoHeh. I think you are correct though. Having a few packs could be beneficial, but while city dwellers are mostly in favor, hunters and farmers see it more critically. I like wolves, but if they gain a critical spread, there will be conflicts with civilization. And of course you need to hunt them at some point to keep them away from urban areas. Didn't take 5 years after their immigration for my country to allow to hunt them again because they primarily attack grazing animals even if they are only present in tiny numbers. We have too many boars and there is truth in the argument about ecological balance, but they aren't the preferred prey if there are that many sheep around. They aren't that stupid. edit: Hunters also request anonymity for hunting wolves because they fear retaliation. You cannot make this up...
