EIJ: Wolf Torture and Execution Continues in the Northern Rockies by J. William Gibson

(From Earth Island Journal) A Hunter and his dead prey

Montana Anti-Trapping Group Gets Death Threat for Releasing Photos

On March 16, a Friday, a US Forest Service employee from Grangeville, Idaho, laid out his traps wolf. The following Monday, using the name “Pinching,” he posted his story and pictures on www.Trapperman.com . “I got a call on Sunday morning from a FS [Forest Service] cop that I know. You got one up here as there was a crowd forming. Several guys had stopped and taken a shot at him already,” wrote Pinching. The big, black male wolf stood in the trap, some 300-350 yards from the road, wounded—the shots left him surrounded by blood-stained snow. Pinching concluded his first post, “Male that went right at 100 pounds. No rub spots on the hide, and he will make me a good wall hanger.”

The Trapperman website went wild with comments. “That’s a dandy!! Keep at it,” wrote Watarrat. Otterman asked, “All the gray on that muzzle make a guy wonder how old he is or if it is just part of his black coloring.” Pinching’s picture of the wolf’s paw caught in the trap got special attention. “Is that the MB750 stamped ‘wolf’ on the pan?” asked one man. “Looks to be a perfect pad catch. Congratulations! Pinching confirmed the trap model and commented, “Oh an [sic] by the way, a wolf is a heck of a lot of work to put on a stretcher! Man those things hold on to their hide like no other!”

Trapped Wolf Used for Target Practice

Wolf torture continues and is praised by some while critics are threatened.

Published on March 29, 2012

by Marc Bekoff, Ph.D. in Animal Emotions

Wolves remain in the crosshairs and the teeth of leghold traps in the Northern Rockies (see and). Let me say upfront that I apologize for posting this brief alert, but it’s essential that people who don’t know about what’s happening learn about the barbaric treatment of wolves, and also for the skeptics to see it up close and personal if they can stand it.

We always knew this would happen but seriously I never believed it would sink this low. I try not to think of what happens to these poor animals before they’re killed but now the cats out of the bag. The one thing they don’t want is for the general public to see the kind of cold blooded brutality they perpetrate on wolves. We always get pictures of the wolves, as horrific as they are, after they’re killed. Now we see the real cruelty and what this beautiful black wolf had to endure. He will carry the banner for his brother and sister wolves and will not have died in vain.

  I agree with those sentiments as well Kim. What’s worse is these methods of “wildlife management” by these “sportsmen”(all laugh here)is acceptable treatment of wildlife in this country. It is sick. I remember when Idaho was doing their Commission meetings with the trapping community to discuss trap check policy. I was stunned to find out that not once was the welfare of the animal even considered……no ethical considerations, no biological opinions, nothing- just when the trappers would be able to get around to checking their death traps…..based on the convenience level of the trapper- what is wrong with this picture?

I grieve when I see this..It rips my heart right out of my chest..So this is what we have allowed these nut cases with guns to do, stand by and delight in torture of a magnificent creature that is trapped, wounded and unable to defend it’s self or even escape..Suffering for hours or days should be their punishment not the wolves…

What kind of a person do’s this.? The same kind that kills innocent men, women & babies in wars all over our planet..

Greed, self importance and domination of all at the end of a gun is just plane sick..To allow this to continue makes us all just as guilty. this must go viral..No self respecting hunter would be involved in this and any one doing these things should not be allowed to own a gun or a license to hunt for food, ever..

One thing we need on this site is a Facebook link to make it easy to pass around…

As sad and horrible as this is it must be viewed by all..These dreadful killers and enabeling polaticians, fish & game and all must be exposed before they kill off all these wonderful keepers of balance in nature…The wolves, like our wild mustangs must be saved and we must be the one’s to do that, now…Peace

May I ask something? Who is monitoring the wolf populations of Idaho and the other states? I was just reading about Idaho expanding the hunting and trapping season and limits. I expect that Idaho will go over and above all human decency in carrying out their “management” plan. Surely the state’s law that says a state can manage wildlife “as they see fit” can be challenged because it is very vague and gives one no assurance that the “management” will be carried out in a humane or legitimate way. It’s shameful in the 21st century to see this, and that you can find examples of this all over the internet and nobody seems to care. I was reading an article on the Huffington Post that says today’s youth don’t seem to have as much interest in the environment or protecting it has they have in years past. The way we’re going, we’ll be back to the ’70s in no time. At least Montana seems to show a little more responsibility than Idaho, and we’ll have to see what Wyoming has in store. I can’t believe our government is allowing this.

  Apparently God gave Idaho special permission for all it’s bloody slaughters, barbaric traps, helicopter hunts, puppies being hooked, wolves trapped and kicked to death. Idaho thinks they are above God’s law and that they have the right to murder innocent animals for blood money and favors. I think that Idaho might be one of the states that plans on drilling despite no matter what their pocket genie has said no to. This ought to be interesting.

I have been following these stories internationally and am appalled by the brutality of supposedly civilised men. The calibre of a man (and of a society) is judged on his humanity to others more vulnerable. This torture is being done in the name of ‘sport’ and is being justified by those hunters in the name of local culture and history. The reality however, is that this is a barbaric and inhumane action that glorifies extreme torture and suffering on the wolf’s part for psychopathic pleasure. A sad reflection on the individual and society in the eyes of the rest of the world. It is one thing to hunt and kill cleanly with one shot, it is another to sadistically and intentionally trap, torture and prolong death and then glorify in it as shown in the recent photo’s circulating around the world in the various social media. There are far more effective non-lethal preventative control measures that can be used to prevent livestock predation. Local USA research supports that wolves contribute to <1% of stock losses yet wolves are blamed for all. For centuries Livestock Guardian Breed Dogs (LGD’s – Maremma’s, Great Pyrenees, Anatolians) have been used in Europe to protect stock from wolves and other predators very successfully. These breeds are already being used successfully in the USA and in Australia. In Africa they also use LGDs for Cheetah conversation to protect the cattle from attacks. We are using them in Australia for conservation of endangered Little Penguins and sea birds from predation by feral wild dogs and foxes. Prevention and deterrence is so much more effective than extermination of a species and the environmental and ecological damage done with removal of top predators. Elk, deer and Moose numbers should be allowed to be controlled naturally by the wolves and not by automatic right by the hunters. Hunting is not a life necessity but a barbaric blood sport that is allowed to continue because of the political power of these groups. The Yellowstone Wolf Project has demonstrated how effective the biodiversity and restoration of fragile ecosystems can occur with re-emergence of different animal species, insects and flora that had been destroyed and lost due to overgrazing and over population of Elk etc. America's woeful economy is supported by a healthy $35M ecotourism annually because people and tourists want to see wolves in Yellowstone. Not only is this good for the economy, it also supports the local area businesses with increased tourism. As a regular international traveller I will now vote with my wallet and feet and choose not to visit the USA and will advocate that to all that share the same views in the international community for the shame of this.

  mtbcanaureen, just wanted to say thank you for your comment, with which I totally agree. I am also non-US, and I just cannot understand what is going on. I can only think it is pure bloodlust that fuels these so-called hunters to carry out their cruel acts, and I am absolutely appalled by the lack of concern shown by representatives of the US government. Not only are they authorizing the overkill of the wolf species, but they are willing to turn a blind eye to the method of slaughter, resulting in unacceptable suffering and inhumanity. All in all a totally scandalous bloody mess. Thank goodness we have people like Nabeki to detail what is happening and help get the message out to the rest of the world, as well as travellers like yourself, who can also contribute in a very positive and articulate way.

Isn’t man an amazing animal? He kills wildlife by the millions in order to protect his domestic animals and their feed. Then he kills domestic animals by the billions and eats them. This in turn kills man by the millions, because eating all those animals leads to degenerative—and fatal—health conditions like heart disease, kidney disease, and cancer. So then man tortures and kills millions more animals to look for cures for these diseases. Elsewhere, millions of other human beings are being killed by hunger and malnutrition because food they could eat is being used to fatten domestic animals.

Meanwhile, many people are dying of sad laughter at the absurdity of man, who kills so easily and so violently, and once a year sends out cards praying for “Peace on Earth”. —Old MacDonald’s Factory Farm, by C. David Coates

Its funny when I explain to people who are against the wolf or are saying they have become a problem and so they deserve to be hunted and murdered. In a very logical manner that this is not true and then I explain the benefits of the wolf on the enviroment and what they have done for the wilderness. And I tell them that the hunters are lazy, they don’t want to hunt. They want an easy kill, they want the elk lined up for slaughter, like cattle. Well the elk are finely wild again. Thanks to the wolves. Most of these people walk away educated. They have nothing negative to say to me about the wolf anymore because they can’t prove me wrong. Most people assume that wolf hunts are going on because they are being cauled or reduced for enviromental reasons. Once again I say this is a lie. People are very ignorant and it is our job to educate them. Many do not know of the torture and cruelty these poor animals suffer before they die. We need to educate ourselves as much as possible and go out into the world and plant a seed of knowledge into the hearts and souls of humans who don’t know. It will grow and they will know the truth. Anger does not work it only pushes people away.

    Marianne. The best weapon is knowledge. Educate yourself on the things that matter to you. And then use what you have learned to teach people the truth. Don’t walk around blind like so many people do, allowing others to run their lives. Learn and listen to both sides and don’t always believe what you hear. Remember there are always two sides to a story. Once you have heard both sides then you can use what you know to fight back in a calm manner. Sometimes anger is okay. Choose wisely when using it.
