Wolf hatred has spread west to Washington State

From Defenders.org:

Yesterday, we learned that the alpha female of the Teanaway pack was shot and killed, throwing the entire pack’s future into jeopardy. Disturbingly, the killing may have been intentional and a criminal investigation is underway since wolves in Washington State are protected under both state and federal law.

Fear and demonization of wolves is like a virus.

Defenders of Wildlife and our conservation partners are offering a reward for any information leading to the apprehension and conviction of the wolf’s killer.

There are barely 60 known wolves in the entire state of Washington. With the tragic loss of the alpha female, the fate of the Teanaway pack is now uncertain. This is a major blow to wolf recovery in the Pacific Northwest.

  2. Honestly, some days I do not know how to handle this crap. Wish we had scads of Wolf Patrol folks roaming the forests. I hope this wolf spirit haunts the killer and that he is found and jailed.

  3. One day wildife will be judged by its role in sustaining the natural world, and not by the prejudice, mythology and ignorance of mankind.

  4. Shame on all. If you are “hunters” you should respect the wolf. Some humans will only be happy when everything is extinct.
