| HEART OF THE WOLF ORG NEWS 9/17/2009 The news is coming fast and furious out of the War Against the Wolf II. Now there is bad news. I) A Wolf has been murdered in this hunting season in Montana. http://www.missoulian.com/news/local/article_91237b86-a2f8-11de-8741- 001cc4c002e0.html II) The Montana FWP has gotten $167,000 dollars out of this hunt. And we predicted this would happen. Money supersedes life in the world of capitalism and any system that thrives on money. http://www.missoulian.com/news/local/article_bffd2588-a276-11de-a7f8- 001cc4c002e0.html III) Wolf hunters are forbidden from eating Wolf kills. (That isn't bad news, but this needs to be stated because what if they might in the future. What happens then?) http://www.missoulian.com/news/local/article_7b9f2e90-a177-11de-80b3- 001cc4c002e0.html IV) Locations of the hunts in Montana and Idaho have been revealed.. http://fwp.mt.gov/hunting/planahunt/wolfStatus.html http://fishandgame.idaho.gov/cms/hunt/wolf/ V) The environmental groups that filed the injunction, are backing off on it, so that they hope Judge Molloy, who broke the law by not stopping the hunt, will rule on the main case. http://www.missoulian.com/news/local/article_7b9f2e90-a177-11de-80b3- 001cc4c002e0.html This is bad, because now more Wolves are going to die. I can see that they want to get to the heart of the matter and try to change things from there, but what if Molloy doesn't relist Wolves in the end? This gamble would be a massive blow and more than just to them. Google the groups on the list here and tell them to reconsider the injunction. And contact Molloy. Since he knows the hunt is illegal, it must end here. Go to http://www.heartofthewolf.org/StopTheHunt.html to help stop this hunt NOW. VI) And here is a disturbing article that showed up on Ralph Maughan's Wildlife Alerts. There was an article hosted there that was by the notorious Wolf Murderer, Carter Niemeyer. http://wolves.wordpress.com/2009/09/10/carter-niemeyer-how-many-wolves- will-be-killed-in-the-hunt/ It has to do with the hunts. Well here is my reply. And you can comment on this website. Also unfortunately this 'person' is coming out with a book in 2010. Here is our reply on it. For some reason it couldn't be posted. I think it was because Maughan's website doesn't allow links to be posted on the comments form. Oh well. Here we go. Reading this article, and 'knowing' Niemeyer, well this is an interesting page here. The article writer and the editor's note at the end reminds me of Kanye West and his self-absorption with himself and his 'talents', like as of late. Both seemed to have appeared under auspicious circumstances. For one, as Judge Molloy said, the USFWS illegally delisted wolves. And this largely was done under political circumstances. I wonder why: It's called money and profit. http://www.miamiherald.com/news/nation/AP/story/1224764.html I recall, the hunters and the ranching industry (who don't support non-lethal methods) have alot more profit value than wolves. Take a guess as to what happens next when you have a recession. And people want to hunt wolves? They get their wish. Especially when Obama, who wanted change, decided to do, some negative change. http://www.whitehouse.gov/issues/additional/ Why I compare Niemeyer to West is simple. Their talents are simply overblown and without proof nor merit. Niemeyer for years and I tangled because he constantly refused to listen to reason, and this is still the case, over the success of non-lethal methods. If they were used, and properly so, there would be no lame excuse for their slaughter in livestock issues. But he still justifies here his record of slaughter. He even went abroad not too long ago to promote his 'ideals' for Wolf Management. Which is nothing more than what I have found in one book (Book of the Weaver) to be called, the 'Mickey Mouse' solution. Where nature is marginalized, animals can't be themselves and the places left are just science experiments. Think about it folks, is nature able to exist without the human attached? NO. Because men like Niemeyer, and Ralph Maughan seem to support the idea that we have to still tame them, though not directly to what we want them to be. Through our own goals. Human's own ideology for their future. Would you want to trust Niemeyer to be an advocate for Wolves? "Wolves are going to be killed. It's unavoidable that wolves are going to have to be managed and at some point if the recovery effort is as successful as it's been it's reasonable to assume that wolves will be harvested or culled through hunting and other harvest measures." That is already assuming you can't create change or fight against something that is imminent perhaps. Letting something bad happen is just as unethical as perpetuating it. It would be like shooting Patrick Swayze or Ted Kennedy instead of letting them battle their terminal cancers. Oh wait, that's right, they are human, so it doesn't matter to these men. This is why you don't have to kill Wolves in livestock issues. http://www.heartofthewolf.org/nonlethalmethods.html And as far as one of Niemeyer's 'successes', here is one. The slaughter of the Whitehawk pack. Despite world-wide protest of the planned attack, he ignored them all, and brutally slaughtered them all. http://www.heartofthewolf.org/WhitehawkPack.pdf Biologists need to not encourage the slaughter of Wolves and protect them. This article does neither. If Niemeyer was 'actually' wanting to protect the wolves, he would be exposing the unlawful removal of wolves from the Endangered Species Act. He would be encouraging the protection of wolves and how to stop the hunting. Instead he is not. Using his status, being a bystander as usual, letting wolves die, instead of helping them. This would be like a doctor letting his patient die rather than saving the patient from their illness, or at least, attempting to. This I recall would be illegal too, but hey as long as animals are treated as 2nd class citizens, it will be, 'business as usual'. I recalled Mech being mentioned here too. He supports too the same ideas, hunting of wolves and the destruction of wolves in livestock issues. http://www.heartofthewolf.org/ESA2.html Both are unethical practices and will foster hatred and violence. Just because people don't like wolves in a minority doesn't mean we should execute them for this. It would be no different than taking rights away from people. I think people would have a SEVERE problem with their rights taken away since you know, they could die because of that. Just because wolves are not human doesn't mean we can do whatever we want with them or give them any less respect we do to people. Period. What's needed is education instead of violence and peaceful solutions. It's sad that biologists and scientists who study them become so obsessed with calculations, numbers and lose their love of what they began to study that they forget this most important point.
