I agree completely with the sport hunting of the wolves as soon as their population size allows, and that might actually be right now. I'm not a biologist, so I wouldn't know one way or another.
Yeah, I am a waterfowl hunter and I do shoot foxes whenever I have the opportunity. With that said, there is a fox season here in Maryland, but I have no idea what the actual dates are.
Somehow, I am willing to bet that foxes and coyotes are a little more numerous than wolves. Heck, I have two foxes that roam this little 5 acre wetland that we have between condo buildings and townhouses. It bothers the hell out of me that they are out there because Nitro almost got into it with one of them once. The fox had the brains to get out of dodge before Nitro could catch him though.
Deer cause the same issue around here, but most of the people are in support of their reduction/killing. Deer are the main cause of auto accidents in the county I live in.
