Title: Wolf Depredation
Post by: JohnP on August 19, 2013, 01:11:07 PM
We all know what is happening to the elk and deer herds in the west.  Here is what happens when wolves are released in cattle country:

INCIDENTS


During July, WS personnel investigated seven livestock depredation incidents and one nuisance report in the BRWRA.


On July 5, WS personnel investigated an incident where a dog was attacked by a wolf.  The attack was observed, and no collar was seen on the wolf.  They confirmed the incident and assigned it to an uncollared wolf.


On July 5, WS personnel investigated a dead calf New Mexico.  Their investigation concluded that the cause of death was unknown.


On July 9, WS personnel investigated a dead heifer in New Mexico and confirmed it as a wolf kill.  The depredation was assigned to uncollared wolves.


On July 9, WS personnel investigated a dead cow northeast of St. Johns, Arizona, and determined it was not killed by wolves.


On July 10, WS personnel investigated a dead calf near Greens Peak, Arizona, and confirmed it as a wolf kill.  The incident was assigned to uncollared wolves.


On July 14, WS personnel investigated two dead calves near Toriette, New Mexico.  They determined the calves were killed by wolves.  The depredations have been classified as one incident and assigned to members of the Fox Mountain Pack.


On July 28, WS personnel investigated a dead cow near Toriette, New Mexico, and determined the cause of death to be a lightning strike.


On July 31, WS personnel investigated a dead cow near Greens Peak, Arizona.  They confirmed the depredation as a wolf kill and assigned to the Paradise Pack.

When they say the kill was assigned to an uncollared wolf that means they don't have to kill a livestock killer, as they would not know which wolf to shoot.

John,

Can't someone just train the wolves to eat illegals?  The wolves would be full and the border would be less traveled.
