Yes, you also have to have like a million permits and licenses. We like our Mexican Grey Wolves. There are only about 1-2 thousand left.

~Zani~the~Taz~Devil~ wrote:My opinion is that yes, they are beautiful creatures. But other animals are wonderful as well. As for killing them, as long as they either: are doing it for protection, or use what they can from the wolf. Does not bother me, I know a kid that has shot a wolf. He actually made me a coat from the fur and used everything he could from it so I had no problem. People who kill them for sport are not even that bad, because they do use them. They are endangered, but does the whole world have to freak out? I think not, there are many endagered species that need more protection. Also, I think what has really made people freak out is misinformation. Wolves do not natrually live in large packs, it is usually a few family members that make up the mass of the pack and 1-3 omegas. Most wolves also cannot climb tres, nor do they slep in burrows. They live in dens and genrally the whole pack sleeps in one. I still think the big problem that needs to be fixed is killing the forest, we can use some but we should also re plant after ward.


Actually, I don't even think that grey wolves are endangered anymore, they had a serious boost in the population. :3 Great post, BTW!
Reality is subjective.

Yep, gray wolves are completely stable, with a population of around 5,000 in the continental United States and 11,000 in Alaska. They're listed as least concern, and are even a bit overpopulated in some areas. ^^

In 2008, there were only about 50 Mexican grey wolves in the wild. Additionally, there are about 200 Mexican gray wolves in captivity, I do believe the population has risen, but not to 1 or 2000.

Your slightly right. There is 43 Mexican Grey Wolves in the wild, and 300 in captivity.

Thank you for updating me, I struggle to find reputable sources of information, in-date that is.

Did you check what date was on the board, if it even had one? The sign must have been in the old days, because the number of Mexican Grey Wolves are usually decreasing instead of increasing.
