I spent 20 years as an outfitter in the Yellowstone wilderness. The wolves and I came to Yellowstone the same year. The changes that they brought to that ecosystem were nothing short of miraculous. Yellowstone went from being a feedlot for elk to a thriving ecosystem with 50% fewer coyotes. The beaver, the vegetation, and all the songbirds returned. I would have never believed the transformation I witnessed if I hadn't seen it for myself.

So they can chase and maim and kill game animals 365 days out of the year and not have to pay any fees or be arrested by a game warden for killing over the limit or out of hunting season. Wolves are not beneficial to other animals who have to survive in the same place where they have wolves chasing, biting, and ripping out ungulates entrails before they are even dead.

I live in western Alberta, my area is a mix of farmland, ranches and forest. None of the large predators were ever eradicated out here, and we still have healthy populations of grizzlies, black bears, cougars and wolves. They do sometimes kill livestock and pets but life goes on, it's just the way things are, predators will be predators. People still manage to hunt, fish, camp, hike and enjoy other outdoor pursuits, you just have to take precautions when you're out and understand that you're in the wild, even if it's just on the outskirts of town. Encounters happen but attacks on humans are rare, especially from wolves. A lot of people don't realize how common they are or how far these predators range east of the mountains, there are wolves and black bears in the Wabamun area (less than 50 miles west of Edmonton) and grizzlies not much farther west. Wolves have even recolonized Elk Island National Park on their own, this is to the east of Edmonton, in the middle of settled farmland, and this population will likely expand farther south in the future. I probably wouldn't have voted to reintroduce wolves to Colorado but with a healthy population in Wyoming it was probably only a matter of time before they found their way south again. This won't be the end of the world for the locals, they'll just have to adjust a bit and learn how to live with wolves in their area again.

@coffeeortea547

What does the adjustment broadly look like? On the top of my head, I'm guessing fencing up farmland, making sure stables and barns and whatnot are more secure.

Carrying bear spray is definitely a good idea and guns have their place in predator deterrence, but I wouldn't go so far as saying that carrying a gun while outside is a must. Again, this is Canada and our laws about having firearms while out in public spaces are a bit more restrictive than in the U.S. In particular firearms are not allowed in our national parks and attacks on hikers and campers are equally rare there.

I have a friend up in Alberta who loves on an acherage outside of Alberta’s capital city. So quite a populace place. Anyhow he and his family had walked his property along the fence line with snow shoes last winter, he told me he had seen occasional prints he thought could be wolf, and hear them, but it wasn’t until the night after was liking his property, he went out to check his chicken coop, he was using the flashlight on his iPhone, he was about 15’ away from his coop when out of the darkness loomed a large wolf, that came around the edge of the coop and went between him and his coop. As it did it took one look at him and he said the raw intelligence was breathtaking. It looked at him and immediately wrote him off as not a threat. It didn’t change its pace or direction it just lopped along with these long legs. He said his flashlight wasn’t even on the highest level so when the wolf came out of the darkness it was like it was there and then it wasn’t. He quickly figured out why the wolf had used that route through his property, it was because they had snowshoed along his property line through deep snow and being efficient the wolf simply used it to travel. He said it was probably a young male that hadn’t yet found his own pack. Needless to say, I was impressed. I’ve heard Alberta is Gods country and between wolves and wolf packs roaming around major cities to the mountains and the prairies it seems like it would be a stunning place. I want to visit sometime. Oh he also told me that he has found cougar prints and that while they have an enormous range they are surprisingly common in Alberta (relatively speaking) all that farmland really does allow wildlife to keep away from more populated areas. Here in Colorado that would be unthinkable, in Alberta it’s just another day and I find that really amazing. Clearly they figured out how to make it work and isn’t Alberta a huge producer of meat herds? So obviously it can work.

@@TheLumberJacked your friend is spot on about cougars, but they are very, very secretive and stealthy, you can live in cougar country for a decade and never get a good look at one. They also reintroduced themselves to the Elk Island area some years ago, before the wolves returned. Alberta is a very stunning place and it's a lot bigger than people think, it would take a whole day to drive across east-west and even longer north-south. And about half of the whole area is still wilderness. The mountain parks are especially beautiful and are the best places to see wildlife. Regarding predator co-existence, I also think that over 100 years of sustained hunting pressure and the more modern selective culling of individual problem animals (i.e. garbage-addicted bears) has produced a change in the behaviour of wolves, cougars and bears. They no longer seem to automatically view people as prey and try to avoid us whenever possible. The majority of close encounters and attacks that I am aware of involve a bear being surprised or defending cubs and/or a food source, or wolves or cougars going after domestic dogs, they both seem to still view dogs as prey or competition and will take them yet leave nearby humans alone.

This has been an interesting topic to me for a very long time. There are multiple sizes did the story but I’ll try to keep it simple. In the 18 to early 1900s wolves were hunted to near eradication but not because of an irrational fear, but because they were seen as competition. Because they were seen as competition they were seen as a nuisance that needed to be eradicated. After that happened, deer became too plentiful for the land to be able to handle, so plant life was drastically affected. People look at the woods today and think that that is a normal site, but what is seen is not home a wood is supposed to be. Entire ecosystems are destroyed. There is no man made machine that can do for an ecosystem daily what a top predator does. Unfortunately, people have gotten used to not having to protect themselves. We’ve gotten used to not paying attention when going outdoors. People love the idea of nature bouncing back, but are not willing to put up with the dangers that need to come with it. Ironically, this is especially true for many people who want to move into the wilderness to “ get closer to nature”. If you wanna be close to nature, have a gun and/or some dogs.

I live in the canyons of Colorado and this year there is an initiative to discourage people from living there. One issue we ran into was the fire insurance cost. Our fire insurance went from $ 8:02 1200 a year to $6000 a year. I asked the insurance broker why the premium had gone up so drastically and he iterated they don’t want you to live there. Through drought, the water table has dropped in the Rockies leading many residents to convert to cistern reservoirs for water. This means you have to buy water by the truckload or fabricate your own transport system to bring water to your property. Wolves are insurance. People move quickly to the high density residential areas within the urban envelope. In my canyon. The lions in one year killed 26 pets. I’m sure this will be exacerbated by this introduction.

Before the wolves were reintroduced to Idaho and Montana. Idaho had a thing going on called the Idaho wolf watch. The state asked you if you saw a wolf to report it to the USFS,the BLM, or Idaho Fish&Game. In June of 1990 I saw two wolves to the west of Salmon Idaho near the Middle Fork of the Salmon River. The next time I was in town I went to the North Fork Ranger District office and reported what I saw. Their reply was that I was wrong and I saw coyotes,I told them that I have seen a lot of coyotes,and what I saw were Wolves,and they were like no-no-no. I ran into that same reply after that. Then I talked to people in the USFS who knew what was going on,and that the powers that be had set up the wolf watch to fail. No matter what numbers that they had,they would doctor the info to show that the wolf reintroduction had to take place,so they could get 14,000,000 dollars to start the program. They did the release in winter,Jan or Feb. The wolves were brought down to Salmon ID from Canada. They had them at the Salmon BLM warehouse. The plan was to fly the wolves out to the Indian Creek Guard Station in the Frank Church along the Middle Fork of the Salmon River. But it was winter time in central Idaho and weather had come in and they could not fly to Indiana Creek. So they drove the wolves to the town of North Fork and headed down the river road to Corn creek witch is the end of the road. Their thinking was it's the wilderness and the wolves would just head off into the back country and all would be well. Some of the wolves headed south and in less then a month people in the Salmon area were having dogs killed and ranchers were having cows killed,and then the whole deal turned to shit. And it is still going on to this day.

Cars are more dangerous than wolves 100%

In Michigan a long time ago they started transplanting "problem wolves" from Minnesota to the Upper Peninsula. The results were predictable; each one eats a deer a week to live, so do the math. The wolf population numbers are vastly undercounted and the DNR minimizes the issue to keep people from thinking about it as being a problem. We can see the impact on the deer herd and it's devastating. I personally know someone who had a dog killed by one (very large Newfoundland) right in their yard, and it even dug up the dead dog after they had buried it.. The next door neighbors (on a rural county road) don't let their small children play outside anymore. It's only a matter of time until they kill someone's child, at which point maybe someone will care about it. Encounters are increasing and they're getting increasingly bold and unafraid of humans. One thing to remember is that almost all state natural resources departments are run by people who are extremely hostile to deer hunting and deer hunters, and want it to end. If they achieve their magical "natural balance" by increasing the wolf population then there will be no need to issue deer hunting licenses to regulate the population, and the tradition will die without ever having been banned. At this point that isn't politically feasible so they're doing an end run around that by going this route. Out west, the same agencies despise the ranchers and what they do, so they're fine with making them suffer while the city dwellers can bask in the glowing warmth of knowing what good smart people they are, bringing back the majestic wolves.. 🤢

Dogs are unbelievably intelligent, I watched my small schnauzer poodle X walk down the fenceline jump onto the compost bin and over the fence to get onto the park, some people like to think these dogs are small inside dogs but both breeds were bred for hunting and retrieving. Each breed has a purpose and their home determines whether they meet their potential, they also understand a lot of terms even without deliberate training.

Idahoan here. Wolves were reintroduced here years ago. They most certainly have affected the environment, just not in a positive way. Our local elk herds have been decimated. The elk now spend their winters in town or eating the ranchers haystacks. The elk have abandoned the mountains in the winter. My family farm/ranch is 40 miles from the mountains. Our ranch is on the high desert so basically sagebrush and a lot of lava rock with few trees. The mountain animals now live in the desert. I’ve seen a Wolverine. We have mountain lions and bears living along the few rivers that run thru the idaho batholith (lava flows ie. craters of the moon). It’s sad that one animal 🐺 seems to be more important than all the other wildlife. In addition domestic livestock and pets are most certainly on the 🐺 menu.

Add on top of that the shrinking of their home environment, you get exactly what you described. In a general sense I agree with you, but I just don’t believe it’s the wolves fault entirely

They saw me first of course each time then vanished like smoke. Biggest impact from car-camping in a small Corsica along Two Medicine River near a bridge that, apparently, the local wolf used to return home with a huge dead grouse in its jaws. I see it emerge from the forest line perhaps 50 yards away. Glare no issue; it was looking right at me as I sat in driver's seat, legs out of door but frozen as the wolf didn't hesitate at all. NO DANG CAM EITHER, or worthwhile one accessible, buried in junk. I swear on my honor this was clearly a wolf, a LARGE one but was colored exactly iike a Disney video cassette cover cartoon fox. Without any care, it trotted out then had to pass on passenger side between car and river bank. I also swear it was tall or taller than the windowsill as it casually turned to look at me as it passed. After that it broke into a fast trot over the bridge, up the opposite hill to disappear. Dang, gotta follow-up on that now I have a steady address ... do recall contacting Park or Forest Service and sense it that the wildlife folk were aware of it.

we have the same problem here in germany. in north germany, meck-vorpommern. hybrid wolves ranging from 50 up to 80 kg. they getting more and more and dangerous!

In very urban Pinellas County Florida. I don’t see any ducks around any of the lakes that historically had lots of them and almo0 stray animals. Because coyotes moved in and they move like ghosts at night eating everything they can catch

Highly encourage you to invite Carter Niemeyer on your show. “Wolves were eradicated for a reason” is such a ballsy, misleading statement.

I remember reading how reintroducing helped meadows and clearing because the herbivores were clearing to much. Which affected water levels.
