The feds are surrendering the hapless Wyoming wolf population to brutal state management at the end of August 2012.
“The federal government plans to announce an end to protections for wolves in Wyoming later this month.
Spokesmen from some environmental groups say they plan to review the final wolf delisting rule carefully when it’s issued Aug. 31. They say legal challenges are likely over the state’s plan to classify wolves as predators that can be shot on sight in most areas.”
Wolves will be classified as predators so they can be shot on sight at any time of the day or night, in 90% of the state. Sickos can run them over with snowmobiles, hang them from fence posts, chop them to pieces, tortured in unimaginable ways….whatever a perverted mind can come up with. This is how low “wolf state management” has sunk. The USFWS put their stamp of approval on this proposed wolf massacre. Wrong is right and up is down.
Wolves must be reilisted. There is no other solution to this madness. It’s the 1900’s all over again and the agency that is supposed to be watching out for a newly delisted species seems fine with the horrific wolf policies of Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Wisconsin and Minnesota. Shame on the USFWS, Secretary of the Interior and the Obama administration.
The successful wolf reintroduction has turned into a nightmare. Wolves will now be hunted in FIVE states: Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Wisconsin and Minnesota. The Montana and Idaho hunts begin in two weeks. Wyoming leads the pack as the wolf persecutors in chief. If they have their way wolves will be treated like vermin, killed for no reason other than hatred, blood lust and stupidity.
I hope this is tied up in the courts for years. Thankfully Cynthia Lummis R-WY didn’t get her budget rider passed so environmental groups are free to challenge the frightening Wyoming wolf “management/killing plan”.
Let the lawsuits commence!!

This is the letter I’ve sent to the list you thankfully supplied. According to whom I sent it to, whether fax or email or person, this is basically it:
Attn: Gov. Butch Otter August 18, 2012
State Capitol
Boise, ID 83720
Time has come to stop the bloodshed, that hatred, the butchering, the ultimate wrong doing to God’s dog. The wolf has been here since the beginning of time. He and man traveled together. There have been pictures found in caves depicting this. What is happening now to this family oriented animal is sinful. Farmers are over-running the wolves territory with their livestock and using getting as close to the dens as possible knowing the mother wolf would protect her young just like your wife and other human mothers would do if a predator came to kill your children. These are a very intelligent animal. They are very social. Mate for live. They are at the bottom of the predator list. You have packs of wild dogs roaming about, bears, large cats, coyotes…then at the bottom…wolves. Please…if you don’t have a heart, and can only see the dollar sign, at least remember one thing…..these are lives that God put here because they entered into His Master Plan for our Eco System.

You are absolutely correct. Good ole’ boy “Butch” declared that he would be the first to buy a tag to kill wolves when it became legal in Idaho.

And God forbid anyone should offer to take them off the state’s hands WITHOUT killing them. A friend of mine offered to move several Idaho wolves to a sanctuary in Pennsylvania.

The hateful, completely unjust and unacceptable proposal of Wyoming Gov. Mead, his federal welfare rancher pals and some death cult “sportsmen” there, to persecute and slaughter America’s innocent and beautiful wolves will be stopped by the courts. This is a criminal native wildlife killing scheme only heartless creeps like Salazar and cold hearted city slickers like Obama, could support. The mentally disturbed wolf killers are going to start losing and these wolf massacres are going to be shut down. We have to work even harder and keep fighting for all of America’s wolves, everywhere, so we can make that happen sooner rather than later. Stay loyal to the pack and keep fighting!

It is fantasy to think Romney and Ryan will be better for wildlife. They will certainly be much worse for the country as a whole. We have to vastly expand and grow intense and unceasing pressure on Obama to fire Salazar and appoint a pro-native wildlife Secretary of Interior. Obama is absolutely a huge part of the problem right now. We must show him he is terribly wrong on wolves and a democratic majority is demanding he change his awful wildlife policies in his second term. The American people will not accept persecution and massacre of America’s wolves any longer!

As I understood it from my father and one uncle whom I knew well, their mother was 1/2 Cherokee Indian, making them 1/4 and me 1/8th. I was also told that my great grandmother was of the Wolf clan. Most, if not all, Native American nations and tribes believe fully in the ultimate power and direction of all things in the spiritual and natural world are in the hands of one Creator and the Great Spirit. I too believe this way spiritually and it is in no way contradictory to my decipleship in Jesus Christ, God incarnate, according to the Hebrew and Greek scriptures comprising the Holy Scriptures.
Chiefs Seattle and Dan George, along with the famous Black Elk, a Lakota Sioux medicine man, each held that once mankind had destroyed Creator’s animals that man’s fate would follow that of the animals and death would ultimately ensue. Chief Seattle ascribed man’s death to a loneliness of spirit but I attribute it to man’s inherant evil nature which stems from a blatant refusal to follow the path set forth by Creator God.
Nabeki, you know that my wife and I, along with many friends of our, have successfully raised Hi%age wolf dogs who are/were all highly family oriented as are the wolves in the wild. At present we have a man in a very powerful government position who wants to see all of the wolves in the lower 48 and Alaska eradicated; the buffalo destroyed; the wild mustangs removed from all U.S. land; along with grizzly and polar bears and perhaps soon the Kermodes of our NW states. His name is Ken Salazar and he has been given free reigns to make whatever decisions suit his evil purposes.
Unfortunately I have seen few results from signing petitions, letter writing campaigns, and telephone calls. This is similar to the efforts of the Lakota Sioux and Amnesty International trying to win Leonard Peltier amnesty or a Presidential pardon for a crooked and invalid conviction for killing two FBI agents on the Rosebud Reservation at Wounded Knee in 1975. Despite the written opinions from the Canadian judge who sign Peltier’s extradition papers, a top FBI invetigator and numerous FBI informants, Peltier has been serving a double life sentence since 1976 in the Federal prison system.
Question: have you ever wondered why ‘Lady Justice’ is depicted holding a set of scales in her one hand, yet wears a blindfold all the while??? It’s simply because there is no such thing as pure, unadulterated justice among mankind!! The only One who can mete out pure and true justice is Creator God. I’m not writing this in an attempt to offend anyone, but I know in my spirit from praying regularly to the Great Spirit=Holy Spirit of Creator God that the prayers of those with a humble and clean heart He always hears and responds to. It will be a massive prayer effort to our Creator that will eventually set things straight in Washington, D.C., Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, Michigan, Wisconssin, Arizona, New Mexico, and all of the other places where these precious and innocent animals are being slaughtered out of fear, hate and greed.
I fully support our Constitution that all should be and are entitled to pray and worship as they see fit and as such I pray, not to a religious group of any kind as all religion is man-made. Instead I pray and make all requestst to the only Creator God who is alive, always has been and forever shall be, He alone can save the animals and us along with them. They were given us for our fulfillment and enjoyment. If we’ll but humble ourselves, putting all worldly pride, arrogance, greed, and disobedience aside WE WILL SEE CHANGES.
We are told by Jesus in Mark 11: 23-24 “I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him.Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.” The One true Creator and Only God can do that which we cannot of ourselves. But for every sincere prayer sent or prayed to Him, He does and will answer!!!

I can’t believe any of you would wish Romney and Ryan on our country. Romney says on day 1 of his presidency he will approve the Keystone XL pipeline, which will hasten the deaths of 6,000 Alberta wolves by shooting from the air and poisoning. The Canadian government thinks these wolves are in the way of turning the Boreal Forest into a tar sands oil wasteland. Romney says he doesn’t understand the intrinsic value of public lands and plans to drill, frack, and mine every acre he can get hold of, including national parks. He wants to get rid of all federal regulations, which includes all environmental protections in the Clean Air Act, Clean Water Act, and Endangered Species Act. He would either eliminate the EPA or make it toothless. Romney will be forced into this by the Koch brothers and other right wing billionaires because they are financing his campaign. I am not even going into how Romney would destroy the middle class, shred the social safety net, and take women’s rights back to the ’50s. What has happened to wolves is a terrible tragedy and I am fighting every day to right it and Ken Salazar is a terrible Interior Secretary, but Romney must not be allowed to become president. The result would be catastrophic.

I’m dreading the moment that Wyoming officially gains management of their wolf population on September 30th. What disturbs me the most about Wyoming’s Wolf “Management” Plan is that wolves will be classified as “predators” (vermin) to be shot-on-sight in about 88% of the state. I know that most of the population is in the “Trophy Zone,” but just to think that wolves could be killed in any way at any time in most of the state is appalling! Plus, it’ll prevent wolves from recolonizing former habitat, such as the Southern Rockies and the Northern/Central Great Plains, since any wolf spotted in the state outside of the “Trophy Zone” could be killed instantly.
