Great idea Fabs, legal sport hunting would never eradicate them, but would keep them at a more realistic level.
The moose would sure thank you, no season in the Thorofare for the first time in many, many years.
Skeet, thanks for clearing up the fact that this is NOT the same native species that was living in the west.
For wolves to coexist with man, it requires an almost unlimited free range, especially winter range. Man screwed up the Jackson Hole herd, (and most of the Yellowstone ecosystem) back in the 20's when they developed on their winter range, this made the feedgrounds necessary. Wolves in an ecosystem with game animals depending on a feedground is not a good situation.
The Jeannie is out of the bottle now, I don't like it, but I would rather have a wolf sighting an exciting, rare event instead of the norm.
