A Wolf/Malamute mix. We cannot let this amazing animal be hunted out of existence.

A safe place for animals should be in the wild .......i think its a horrible thought that my grand grand children will only know wildlife by pictures or in Zoo's instead of free in Free Nature.

This wolf was one of pair at Busch Gardens, Virginia. She had just settled into the grass for a nap. Several children were trying to get them to howl, but wolves in capitivity stop howling altogether because it's a territorial behavior and in capitivity, they are no longer challenged for terriorty. It would be ashame to lose that fantastic, signature sound of the wild.

It's amazing to see these animals in a safari park, but the thought of them dwindling in the wild is heartbreaking. Keep them free lets not destroy yet another remarkable creature.

Hiking through Denali National Park in Alaska we spotted a pack of Grey Wolves checking out a caribou carcass. This one wandered closer to us and I was able to snap a spur of the moment shot before it ran off.

You people just do not understand.  We do not want to kill all of the wolves.  We would just like to get rid of the ones that come to close to our houses.  They pose a great danger to pets, livestock (source of income for many) and especially our children.  Having wild predators running around near where you live is about the same as having muggers and murderers in the city.  It is not safe to let your children go outside.  We just want to be able to protect our families and our animals.  We enjoy having them in the remote mountains and wilderness areas just the same as we have mountain lions and bears. But if a mountain lion or bear comes to close to the town or city they can be removed by the State.  Why should it be any different with wolves which are far more dangerous because they usually travel in packs.  Idaho wants to kill 500 wolves because that is about how many pose a threat to us, not because we want to anhiliate all of them.  The numbers are way beyond the requirement for delisting, and likely under estimate the actual numbers.  I am sure that there were once predators living where many of you now live.  They were driven out by developmet just the same as other animals.  Deer, elk and bison used to live all over, not just in the mountains.  You can bet that the wolves and other predators lived where they did because that is their source of food.  So until we start tearing down your houses and cities in your state.......you don't have any business telling us what to do with ours.

NO!!! We should save the wolves because they are just afraid of us as we are of them so it doesn't mean we should KILL them dude literelly YOU ARE RETARDED let the wolves be i mean come on bro!

if any one thinks that killing an endangered animal is cool or ok. then they are f ing stupid. these animals are majestic, mysterious and beutifull. they need to be protected for years and years from now on if they want a chance to live and not get wiped out.
