Um, yes they have. There used to nearly NO wolves in america because they were hunted out.
They were endangered in America. Yes. They were.

Oh boo-hoo, they MIGHT become endangered. I don't think that wolves deserve the unnecessary attention they get. Now if you want to hear something sad, think about all the buffaloes that were killed in the 19th century.

I just stated a fact. They at one point HAD been nearly wiped out in america. And if you had read, I NEVER said they "might" become endangered again, you dumbass. Next time READ.
You said "Wolves have never been endangered" and YES they have. I was merely pointing out that you were wrong.

The "no" in all caps kind of implies that you're for preserving them. So yes, I did read, I just assumed. As for the whole wrong thing, of course I am on the first part. The point I'm trying to make is that they really don't need to be overprotected unless they are in real danger like the dhole. Also, it's really just there to aggravate people who put gray wolves above all other species who actually are in danger. As for the second part of the comment, only time will tell.

Actually I'm all for hunting them. They are getting out of control now. But yes they were endangered at one point. Though I say focus on the ones that ARE endangred. There's people saying we shouldn't kill any of yellowstones wolves. That one AREA has hundreds of wolves I believe. Don't think that's natural :\

Well if you're for hunting them, then everything is just fine and dandy with me.
Killing wolves is, in my opinion, completely justifiable. I understand people thinking they're cute, but they can cause serious damage to farms and ranches. For example, I love coyotes because I have a coydog. Every now and then on the ranch, I see a coyote and know almost instinctively that it is necessary to kill it. If I were to let the coyotes run around the ranch, I'd have no livestock left. It's just the way nature works.

Yup. Though killing them "just for shits" like I know some people do, like running them over or hunting deer and shooting a wolf, I think that's wrong. :\

This is so stupid. They're not endangered but that doesn't mean we should hunt them.
It's like being in the middle of the desert and you don't have any more food, then you find some in your backpack and eat it all in one second.

No no no, you don't seem to get it.
They're overpopulating, so if we don't hunt them, there will be WAY too many. it's our way of keeping the earth in check.

Ooooh, didn't know that

Actually, the fact that they're overpopulated means we should hunt them ^_^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No, not really
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
So we'll let them starve to death because they overpopulate and destroy all their food? Right? RIGHT?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Who ever said grey wolves were overpopulated? This stamp says they aren't endangered, that doesn't mean they're overpopulated.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Actually, it's been said they are overpopulated, which is why they hunt them
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm sure it has

Are you a vegan?
Do you ever eat deer?
That's an animal hunted because it's overpopulated.
If we DON'T hunt those animals they will DESTROY their environment.
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Just like the cane toad.

No. I don't eat deer, I hardly eat any meat and if I do, it's not real meat.
I know that, but what if one day we hunt their species to an appropriate number, then some day something will happen that will wipe them out and it's mostly our fault for culling them?
They wouldn't be overpopulated if we didn't destroy their homes and hunt their food

I'd prefer we didn't get in the way. I understand wolf hunting and culling, but I don't support it (when I say that, I'm not saying I don't agree to it) Animals have their own ways of culling, that's why they kill each other and other animals.

The problem is, wolves have no natural predators other than humans. Even mountain lions and bears are chased off by wolf packs. They have no predators thus, are getting out of control.

Also, the stamp doesn't say we should hunt them. Read first next time wolfaboo

I'm not a wolfaboo, I'd be this way with any animal.

Lol, nice stamp. 
...I'm so proud that I converted my wulfaboo friend to anti-wulfabooism many years ago.

They may not be endangered, but there being put back on the red list for Michigan and Newakki
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
No they aren't ^^
I don't see why people are making such a fuss over wolves when they've been taken off the list. That usually means that the species is currently in good condition.
Now, how about some animals who need the help?
African White-bellied Pangolins, Mediterranean Monk Seals, Pygmy Alligator Lizards, White-winged Nightjars, they're only a few examples of the thousands of other animals on that enormous list of endangered species. Wolves are off pretty good right now, so why not focus on the other animals who need it?

People need to stop freaking out over whether gray wolves are endangered or not.
Certain populations ARE endangered. And those populations are the ones that need to be protected. Without them, the top predator, the ecosystem will be in very big trouble.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Just saying, a bear or mountain lion can whoop a wolfs ass. <.< There is no "top predator"
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Of course a bear or a mountain lion- heck, even a regular lion, could take down a wolf. No question about it! That doesn't mean the wolf, in it's own ecosystem, can't be top predator.

Nope. Octopus eat sharks.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I've never heard of it, but it's probably happened before. However, shark isn't part of their diet. Octopi tend to eat small crabs, scallops, crustaceans, and in some cases, other octopi. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Or at least dang close to it
They're barely ever eaten. Must be a good life being a shark.
You know, until someone drags you out of your home, cuts off your fins and then throws you back into the ocean.

But good point!

THE TRUTH. YESSS.
I 
Not to mention rattlesnake hunts or whatever it's called. Some kid was showing off some rattlesnake boots he got when I was 7 and still in my snake phase, and I nearly threw up.
Sometimes I wonder where all the wolf-loving started.... (because when comes to canines, Coyote is a bit better in my opinion. Maybe I've heard one too many trickster tales. XP) Wolves don't eat you though. They're cowards.
Sorry this is kind of a useless comment...

oooh I do love wolves, but Unlike most wolfaboos I agree along with this 
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
When I was in fifth grade they were... or atleast that's what they told us. xD
I guess they're not anymore.
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
They haven't been vulnerable since '94 or '95. I don't know when they were endangered, because the IUCN redlist only goes to 1982 (and they were vulnerable then, not endangered).
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Unfortunately, the wolfaboos didn't get the memo.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Why kill a wolf though, killing livestock sure, freezing to dealth in the snow sure, because you feel like it??? I dunno.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
They have not been for quite awhile. Even in 1982 they were just vulnerable, and stopped being vulnerable in '94 or '95.

I really don't give a flying monkey fuck anymore. This comment is old, let it die.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The comment is still open to the public. If you don't want to be bothered, don't post suh ridoculous comments. If had posted a legotimate, well thought out response- people would be more inclined to leave you alone when you asked.

Like I said, I don't care. xD

So? They aren't anymore, that's the whole point.
