And they aren't the only ones. The Senate and House passed a provision in the Agriculture Appropriations bill
that will allow the continuation in 2010 the slaughter wolves in livestock issues in Minnesota
and relocate some to Michigan and Wisconsin. Already 186 wolves have
been slaughtered this year in Minnesota. The President is now going to have
to decide whether to sign it or not...And next year, the USFWS will once again...
attempt to delist the wolves in the Great Lakes region.

This provision, announced by U.S. Rep. Jim Oberstar, D-Minn., allows in addition for reimbursement to farmers
who lose livestock. None of it goes towards prevention and non-lethal methods of course.

More on that here:

Other wolves have died in these hunts, the Cottonwood Pack is now officially gone from the Earth. And Jewel, a
yearling femalefrom the Phantom pack, has been assassinated.

Ralph Maughan who tries to decry the hunting of wolves, thinks this has to be a reality and therefore we should
diminish it, and not still do our best to eliminate it. Sorry 'pal', you can't say you
support wolves if you say they are going to be hunted no matter what.

http://wolves.wordpress.com/2009/10/08/kathie-lynch-on-the-yellowstone-park-wolves-shot-in-montana-wolf-
hunt/

It's like saying, well since crime will always happen, we might as well just let it happen. And not do the best we
can to prevent it. That doesn't fly. Of course Maughan supported the USFWS and some of it's former agents like
Carter Niemeyer. He currently works for the Idaho Department of Fish and Game and slaughtered wolves in
livestock depredation issues that could have been prevented through non-lethal
methods.

We don't support hunting at all. Ever. But even we know that once you get enough of people in a small group to
go after something they hate for no reason that is justifiable, they will do it with such zeal you will not believe.
Fear and hatred of something will cause many to do things you will not expect. But
it doesn't help that Sime slaughters wolves too.

She was responsible for the elimination of the Sage Creek wolf pack in livestock
issues.

Of course the implications of this go higher than one would expect.

What starts out as a wolf issue directly ties into the human world.
All are one and one are all, after all.

Change can be good, change can be bad. I liked this quote upon seeing it.

'People.. especially people in positions of power.. have invested a tremendous amount of effort
and time to get to where they are. They really don't want to hear that we're on the wrong path,
that we've got to shift gears and start thinking differently.'--
David Suzuki

The situation with wolves today has been impacted by many events over a span of a year, to get to this point.

Barack Obama today won the Nobel Peace Prize which has hit the
airwaves and everyone has a view already on it. We are here to
offer ours.

Obama did win it, but as with any recipient of any award, do they necessarily deserve it? In this case, no.

Now we aren't a party or politican supporting organization. One must realize is that both political parties dance
to the tune of Wall Street and the Federal Reserve. As well as the corporate and constituents that get them
their seats before all else. Money and profit come before all else. Maybe because of greed, maybe not, but
the result is the same. As long as money rules, everyone besides those who have it, suffer.

Obama promised change, which during his campaign he mentioned the environment in passing. Although
Global Warming was somewhat of a priority, little was stated. In the past, it's been on and off
as to what party supported environmental changes, which is another reason why we shy away from supporting
political officials.

Especially when it gets really strange like how Nixon signed the Endangered Species Act into law on December
28, 1973. Yet Teddy Roosevelt, who set aside Yellowstone National Park, isn't the hero
most think he is. In fact he was racist against Native Americans, he did think that a good Native American was
a dead one. He was also a hunter, who didn't care about protecting bison until his livelihood in that department
would almost cease because of the bison's near-extinction.

http://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2007/08/16/18441122.php

He also supported the annihilation of wolves, which would imbalance the ecosystems of the U.S. and
Yellowstone, until the modern era.

But I don't digress here. And here is one very important point that shouldn't be forgotten here.

Roosevelt wasn't a conservation politician, or protecting nature for the sake of itself. He served hunting
interests and his constituents, and was protecting that 'lifestyle', rather than nature and it's
human inhabitants, the Native Americans.

Roosevelt's presidency was from 1901–1909 and he won a Nobel. It was for helping to the Russians and the
Japanese end the Russo-Japanese war in 1905. However it was conveniently forgotten
about the plight of the Native Americans and nature that he caused.

http://features.csmonitor.com/politics/2009/10/09/obama-joins-3-other-us-presidents-who-have-won-the-nobel-
peace-prize/

Now Obama has won a Nobel too. And it's happening all over again.

'Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it.'--
George Santayana

Over the past year things have culminated to the delisting of the
wolf and attacks on it again, in the form of another president.

I) Obama appointed Senator Ken Salazar of Colorado to be Secretary of
the Interior.

http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1867218,00.html

Ken Salazar is against wolves, which although some ranchers thankfully
support the peaceful co-existence between human and wolf, most do not,
which includes this man.

In the past he supported poison being used on wolves and he did agree
with the Bush Administration's move to delist wolves. Obama's administration
would have no problem with this.

II) Why? Because he had hunters as help for a minor boost to the
economy and not to mention he thinks hunters are vital to nature.

http://www.whitehouse.gov/issues/additional/

And calls hunting rules 'ethical game laws'.

Check out a report we gave that debunks this in a heartbeat.

http://www.heartofthewolf.org/HoWWolfNewsUpdate1052009.html

Go to 3) to read it.

He also has declared a National Hunting and Fishing Day too.
http://www.appomattoxnews.com/2009/obama-declares-national-hunting-and-fishing-day.html

III) The de-listing was also not just unethical, but illegal.
The Judge who didn't allow an injunction to stop the hunts for
now said it himself, that it was politically motivated.

And who is in control of the White House, politically? The President
and Congress. They are paying back their constituents and Wall Street,
while the Federal Reserve right now (which they are their own entity,
which that even the government has no idea what they are doing and what
their motives are) is pumping out money even though
we are in debt to the Chinese. If they can get more money
pumping into our economy from hunters while doing pseudo-environmental
protection to prevent a total disaster, all the better.

Obama is a president that goes by the style of trying to appeal to everyone,
rather than doing the right thing. And that has resulted in a Theodore
Roosevelt presidency where, things once again have become where special
interests rule the democracy, rather than the majority ruling it.

Most Americans want them back.

Although Michael Moore made the severe mistake of having support from
hunters in getting Obama into office (this has become common practice
now. Some groups like the Sierra Club even have hunters among their
ranks), he does make a valid point.

We need democracy back. The majority opinion and views win. Not small
interests groups ready to throw cash to get what it wants.

Money they say is the root of all evil because
when you factor in: profit, Wall Street, corporations who are corrupt, as well
as hunters (and the hunting industry), the idea that
humans are superior to nature (which leads to more unethical behavior),
this is the result.

Wolves shouldn't be killed, in hunts or livestock issues. This has
to stop. And we can't do it without you. My voice alone cannot do that.
You can take action. Until this is undone, the progression of humanity
and nature together will stop, and decline into a state of nothingness.
What humans do to nature, it will suffer for in the end.

Go here to see who to contact and how to help stop the hunts in Idaho,
Montana and Wyoming.:

As we speak the hunts where that Yellowstone pack was killed have
ceased, but the hunts still continue in Montana...even though this
statement was said:

"... We don't want to kill the wilderness wolves and the wolves that don't
need some education, which are those on the ranch land," said Fish, Wildlife
and Parks Commissioner Ron Moody. "I want to ensure sufficient opportunity to
be available during the general season."

To check out past alerts on the hunts, go to: http://www.heartofthewolf.org/index2.htm
Go to Wolf News and check out the alerts.

P.S.: Let's not also forget there is still aerial wolf cullings in Alaska,
the re-start of the Mexican Gray Wolf Program since the wildlife agencies
eradicated the wolves there, and other hideous programs around the world
still. Wolves aren't safe. This is why nature and animals deserve protection
like we do. We can't just say, there are enough of you, let's take away your
rights. If it happened to you, you would be outraged. And so would others,
in fact, it happens to many people as we speak all around the world.

So far the casualties in this war against Wolves
have totaled pretty high since hunting has been allowed.

27 wolves have been slaughtered in Idaho, which has been supported
by Doug Smith, originally responsible for the recovery of wolves
into Yellowstone. And he supported the delisting of wolves from
Endangered Species Act. The sickening part is, is that it didn't
faze him. 9 wolves were murdered as of October 1st in Montana.
One of the packs was from Yellowstone. And hunts haven't began
even in Wyoming, yet.

Carolyn Sime of the Montana Fish Wildlife and Parks who supports the
destruction of
wolves, wonders why this is unexpected and how the high rate
of hunting success may lead to an early end to the hunts.
