    The thing I love about wolves are the eyes. That alert, intense stare, even when they're totally relaxed. Just mesmerizing...or however you spell it.

    Interesting...wolves are beautiful creatures. What an adventure. Would love to experience this myself. Look forward to reading their observations and seeing the photos. We must protect this species and the beautiful wild parts of our nation. Once its all gone, it can not be brought back like before.

    I have a "friend" I call Tsar. Nobody who has ever visited me as of yet has ever looked at him without asking me, "Is that a wolf?" Well, I don't know. He just showed up one day (I live in the mountains) but has only ever been loving, sociable, and gentle. He's allowed me to feed him while holding the bowl so he can lick it clean. There's 0% aggression on his part and he walks beside me everywhere I go as if it's his job to accompany me. Tsar appears to be a wolf by size and color. He's gentle.

    I guess it is not impossible; I just know that wolves have been given a bad rap and are little to no threat to humans. If they were a real threat to humans, there would be documentation, like with bears and cougars. And I basically agree with the bit about all animals being good for an ecosystem (except invasive species) but top predators are particularly important to balance and biodiversity.

  • @R2CoreDA2
    @R2CoreDA2 11 років тому

    This makes wolves look kind of adorable. Also, the first thing that crossed my mind when reading the title was "do they eat bacon?" as a joke, but seeing that they have contact with these humans, I now ask a little more seriously:
    Do they eat bacon?

  • @onimotoko
    @onimotoko 11 років тому

    I agree with the fact that domestic cattle are the bane of the Americas. However, Wolves can, have and DO kill people out of desperation. This fact alone is enough to make people far too fearful of these creatures to be allowed anywhere near human populations. It isn't their fault, it isn't ours, it just is.

  • @karentharp2721
    @karentharp2721 4 роки тому +2

    The truly good book people do need to understand that there's a hierarchy and wolves they do have a structure of society and they're very accepting of us people we're under the right circumstances. I personally have a wolf who's the service animal not a wolf dog a wolf a red McKenzie Tundra wolf and he is absolutely amazing one of the things they say wolves are shy he loves doing his job in the public and he absolutely loves women females any age he doesn't care or he just think they all belong to him he's absolutely drop-dead gorgeous anywhere we go a 15-minute run into the store turns out sometimes to be an hour and a half because people just can't stay away from him they want to know about him they want to touch him he's got a certain kind of magnetism that just draws people. So I truly would like people to learn more about wolves how they affect the ecosystem how they actually keep herds in control and it benefits Hunters when we have wolves they are not a detriment hit anything.

    I would've loved to have been out there interacting with wolves. When I go out to adopt a dog, I go right for the ones that resemble them the most in appearance and temperament, as close as I can get without the gene. I wish it was possible to have a hybrid. *sigh*

  • @michellegarthe4697
    @michellegarthe4697 11 років тому

    I think it means they do not hunt for sport, they hunt to survive. And like all top predators, they bring biodiversity and balance to the habitat, which is a very good thing. Biodiverse ecosystems are much more resilient to disaster.

    • @jess3029
      @jess3029 5 років тому

      Yeah all animals are part of the ecosystem, if one is banished it all messes up and that's why some populations go down or up.

  • @Marie-et6lw
    @Marie-et6lw 11 років тому

    We have to prepare ahead of times to make sure we can grow, but at a slower rate that allows our population to stay nearly the same. If it lasts like this we will multiply way too fast.

  • @Marie-et6lw
    @Marie-et6lw 11 років тому

    It's not impossible for a wolf to attack a human. Think of older times with no records, or just times that have not been recorded. We cannot say for sure that wolves never attack humans. However, they probably do it for understandable reasons (Protection. Food. etc.) Was that what you disagreed about, or was it about how I said all animals are good when balanced?

  • @Marie-et6lw
    @Marie-et6lw 11 років тому

    Yes, the invasive species are hard to control and get in the way of the natives that help the ecosystem. They aren't much of a threat to us since we aren't really on their menus unless they need the food.
