The Delisting of Wolf 253M

The Bush-Cheney Administration removed the gray wolf from the Endangered Species List and turned over their management to Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming. Wyoming's management plan classifies the wolf as a predator in most of the state, which allows a resident to shoot a wolf on sight, any time, for any reason, including great teachers and spirits, like Wolf 253M.

wyoming should change its state motto to

"Drill it or Kill it:

@PaintPoniez

hmmm, maybe people would care if that were true. in fact, elk populations are currently at a record high.

@gribbstone234

yeah, if you don't like our state stay out......... we are one of the only state with a budget surplus thanks to drilling and mining,,,,,as for the wolves,,,,we NEvER wanted them here. if they would just stay in yellowstone that would be fine but they won't. If you would like the surplus sent to your state let us know

@kevinparsons426 While I admit that wolves do sometimes kill unnecessarily, they do so seldomly. Regardless, whatever is left over is taken by scavengers such as the ravens, coyotes, and foxes. Plus, to simply say "they do not eat their kill" is not accurate at all. If not their kill, then what do they eat?

[kevinparsons426]

Good riddance 253!!! Brian, your characterization of the hunter that killed this worthless animal could very well be said about the ruthless nature of every wolf in the wild. They kill for fun. They do not eat their kill. Wolves do not belong in the populated Northwestern States. There are plenty of wolves in Canada and Alaska where they do not threaten populations. I like near three packs of wolves in Idaho, and I don't trust being alone in the mountains any more.

i was taught never take more than you need and to bless and ask forgiveness of the hunt and most of all always give back when you take maybe more should choose that path , mother earth would in turn give to the people.peace and blessing be with you 253 and Brian

@aokska dear you are not worthless. You can unteach yourself and be careful of the people you surround yourself with. When we believe something, we tend to attract those who reaffirm that belief.

@KnobbyNobbes WHAT THE HELL! I didn't write this comment! I've never even seen this video! Bullshit!

[UMBERTINIE]

DEAREST LIMPY! YOU ARE IN MY HEART FOREVER! I'M LOVING YOU.... SUPER VIDEO. THANK YOU BRIAN!

[aokska]

@KnobbyNobbes well if u think about it, more cattle are killed by other things besides wolves also wolves dont go after livestock unless its a last resort. wolves luv their family but they understand a threat and know not to go after it, plus 253m seemed to kind smart and nice to want revenge

[aokska]

"parents are the best teachers" well i think my mom did a good job teaching me that im worthless
