Ut vivat tecum. In order to live with you. Its in Genesis. We are a sick society in some ways, true we need to protect our children from predators, but we tell the poor people in Asia and Africa to live next to tigers and lions so that we can sit in big jeeps and go on safari but scream in anger if just one predator in the west attacks humans. There has to be balance and it includes the Roman Catholic church recognising and respecting the words of Genesis and stating that the world is finite in the number of people it can hold. In Iran the shepherds have saved a sub species of wolf who follows the flocks, and they put out the dead and injured sheep, a kind of symbiosis. In the west we spend big money and CO2 emissions burning dead sheep. I was one involved in the fight to save the Iberian Lynx I was disgusted that mankind in Europe in a relentless bit to produce economic wealth nearly wiped out a creature with a right to be here. I just stopped what I was doing, its like the guy in Nazi times who said they came for the communists and the Pastors and I did nothing, then they came for me and there was noone left. So they came for the dodo and then the baiji in China we have to draw the line, stop what we are doing,say no, the resistance begins otherwise oneday there will only be us left and thats not enough and then they will come for us we will be doomed. As the wise Indian chief asked the US president, will you really be happy when the great buffalo no longer roam across the prairie? Will we be happy when our replicating apartment blocks and tarmac roads fill the fields where the jumping lynx once lived? The Bible says the animals on the earth were placed here to live with us.

They would probably sniff them, and run away! And besides, if your so worried-then why would you leave your kid to see if a wolf would do something? A little stupid if you ask me, but it's yours, so do with it what you want. But really guys, the wolves that usually attack are sick, starving, poisoned, have mange-and other reasonable aspects. You as a parent, sister, brother ect. have more of a threat to the kid than a wolf. People murder people. It's a fact. Leave wolves alone, you're just making it hard on yourself, because those who love wolves will just hack at you until you leave. Like me!

You here more stories of humans murdering humans than you do wolves killing humans.. and why wouldnt they? we scare them.. so the only way to react is with violence.. if not they get a bullet placed in their skull! These miraculous creatures deserve to live! Humans are just as bad if not worse!

What are you all thinking? Do you hate humans and children that much? Maybe if you had wolves in your back yard you would understand the carnage.

What's more important, protecting domestic animals or very rare wildlife species??? Eating meat is bad for our health and damaging to the environment. We should reduce cattle populations and let the wild predators live. This “cull” is a horrible idea”. What’s more important, protecting domestic animals or very rare wildlife species???
