the comments section reveals WAY MORE than the article:

"I am truly sorry that you don't understand the problem here in Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming. They have dumped upon us a preditor that has NEVER been here. It is the Mackenzie Valley Wolf. This area cannot support these killing machines! They are an invasive species and YES they DO sport kill. Here is a link to a spree kill and what our ranchers are going through. You are only hearing PROPAGANDA! [link to mtstandard.com]

"Aaron, if you are doing a report for college, you need to read some books by people who live in countries that have been studying wolves for 400 years and have a long history of documentation. You are being brainwashed by eco terrorists and they have an agenda to fullfill. I live in New Meadows Idaho and I personally know the person who killed the large wolf. I didn't personally weigh the wolf so cannot say if it weighed 290 lbs but the man in the picture is 6'4. I can send you many pictures, articles, and attacks on humans, dogs, sheep, horses, elk, moose, deer, and children. These wolves are HUGE and are NOT afraid of humans. Here is a link to just one website for your information. [link to www.skinnymoose.com]

"I see the human haters are out in full force!!--the wolf shown is from the same area they illegally transplanted ours from. He weighed 280 lbs and is the new world record and you people want us to live with them??? Pound sand-We are killing every one we see!"
