WOLF AND WOLF-DOG NEWS 3/19/2009

Hi folks, here is the latest
Wolf and Wolf-Dog news.

1) The Montana FWP was involved
in another depredation incident
that occurred.

They failed ot prevent the
depredation of a Goat. A Guard
Dog on the scene was severely
injured.

They think the Mitchell Mountain Pack,
which includes five to seven Wolves
was around at that time.

Apparently it is the third time
north of Helena where this has
happened in less than a year.

If they had more
Guard Dogs on a property than
just one, this wouldn't happen.

The Montana FWP can try to claim
that they use Non-Lethal Methods
and PF Ranching. But they don't.

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

Honestly, can one Guard Dog stand
up to 5 Wolves. No. So do things
smartly Montana FWP instead of
blaming the Wolves.

And since they blame the Wolves
as usual, they are going to
murder two Wolves from this pack.

And they also 'euthanized'
a female Wolf near Gardiner.
The 'official' cause is severe
mange.

We suspect the real reason is
because the poor Wolf killed
some domestic Chickens.

Instead of trying to help Wolves
that have mange, incidents like this
happen.

This is why we advocate these agencies
to stop the spread of mange.

http://www.kpax.com/Global/story.asp?S=10034626

The Montana FWP was also involved
in the murders of a Wolf from the
Lebo Peak pack south of Two Dot
last Friday.

They also captured one of the Wolves
from the same pack and collared it
and released it to monitor them for
their next plans of oppression and
mayhem.

http://www.laureloutlook.com/articles/2009/03/18/sports/06wolf.txt

And this is why they shouldn't be
delisted in the first place. If they
cannot be protected in the first place,
having less protections is just ridiculous.

A) Contact Montana FWP and Wildlife
Services in opposition to this
and sue if possible.

http://fwp.mt.gov/wildthings/wolf/contact.html

USDA Wildlife Services
http://www.aphis.usda.gov/wildlife_damage/da_staff.shtml

B) Contact Montana Government Officials in opposition to this
and ask for their help to stop this.
http://www.congress.org/congressorg/officials/congress/?district=01&lvl=C&azip=59101&state=MT

C) Please contact your media and officials about these issues.
http://www.heartofthewolf.org/MediaGovernmentContacts.htm

D) Contact Obama, Biden and Salazar about
NLMs and PF Ranching and how these agencies
in Montana aren't using them properly. And how they
shouldn't be slaughtering Wolves in livestock
issues. As well as taking the blame, and not
giving to the Wolf for these livestock losses.

http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/
http://www.doi.gov/contact.html

Also tell them to re-list Wolves. They have no business
in having Wolves delisting them.

2) Population levels of Wolves are going down
in Wyoming, and in particular in Yellowstone
to canine distemper and mange.

Mange was introduced to many Wolves in an
effort to eradicate them back in the day.

Now it is a killer to them still.

http://powelltribune.com/index.php/content/view/837/2/

Despite this, officials won't lift a finger
to do anything to treat the disease.

Like Doug Smith. And the Wyoming Fish and Game's
Mike Jimenez.

Contact both parties and urge them to stop
ignoring the lack of treating these Wolves
and start treating them for mange.

WOLFDOGS IN OHIO NEED OUT - EMERGENCY - PLZ REPOST

http://w207.photobucket.com/pbwidget.swf?pbwurl=http://w207.photobucket.com/albums/bb72/kfcwolf/08e0670f.pbw

The Situation for Vermilion, Ohio wolfdogs; Sun, Moon & Star are
becoming more desperate.

We are in need of donations.

And if we need to move them in a hurry to another temporary
place they will need food, water, supplies, and travel expenses.

We still don't have a definite plan as yet,
but only a very few people have donated a little bit of food.

We have to drive water all
the way out to the country where they are still on the abandoned ranch.

Often the water freezes at night, and then we have to keep bringing out
fresh bottled water to fill up the buckets.

It's a long drive. Their food has been mostly poor quality kibble.

We need collars, ID tags, straw etc. If any of you can please make a
donation (any amount) to help these beauties
it would be greatly appreciated!

You can send a donation for Sun, Moon & Star by using my pay pal info below:

WOLF NEWS 3/17/2009

Here is the latest news.

1) Once again the Alaskan
Department of Fish and Game,
and with the help of Sarah
Palin, have begun the slaughter
of Wolves.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2009/mar/17/alaska-wolf-kill-helicopter-park-service

They so far have slaughtered
30 Wolves.

They plan to destroy 150 Wolves.

Their program has even caught the
attention of the Park Service.

Defenders of Wildlife is against
the killings yet they weirdly
say that it isn't biologically
supported. It doesn't matter
if it is scientifically wrong.

It's MORALLY wrong. If Defenders
thinks it is morally wrong, they need
to come out and say it.

This program must be stopped.

And taxpayers should be upset too in
that state. They are spending $100,000
on this program!

Contact the Senators in the
U.S. about this issue.

Contact the Alaskan Government Officials
too.

Thanks for your help!

2) Scandanavia has 25 pairs of Wolves
and appears to be growing.

Sweden has 22 pairs currently.

http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5506

3) A Wolf may have returned to the Gruyere
region of Switzerland.

Evidence after 3 fawns have been killed
point to it.

The last Wolf in that region was murdered
in the late 1830s.

http://www.worldradio.ch/wrs/news/rundown/news-at-a-glance-124.shtml?12875

4) Here is some odd news for everyone.

The $410 billion bill spending package
that President Barack Obama signed awhile
back is being used for something interesting.

Well $870,000 of it. Congress approved of
it to be used for the construction of a
breeding center near Tacoma, Washington
for Red Wolves.

http://www.kansascity.com/444/story/1087538.html

This is because Red Wolves have trouble
breeding at other facilities. This is when they
are surrounded by the continued juggernaut
of human development of natural areas into
concrete jungles that devour what was there
first.

A continued tragedy which happens now as
more and more homes, strip malls and other
buildings are built for balooning populations
of Humans.

Hopefully this new facility will help the
Red Wolves.

This earmark isn't a bad one at all, which
is a step in the right direction for Wolves,
but at the same time we need Gray Wolves
re-listed.

Moderate policies by this administration
is a double edged sword.

Thank Congress for the funding for this
project, and urge Ken Salazar, Obama,
Biden and Congress to relist Wolves.

Contact Congress here:

of this:

WOLF MEDIA NEWS 3/17/2009

Several interesting tidbits
appeared regarding Wolves in a positive
manner.

1) Black Cat, the anime and the manga
has a character by the name of Anubis.
Anubis is a Wolf from an assassins guild
of the organization Chronos. He helps
the hero Train Heartnet defeat Dr. Tearju
to rescue his friend Eve.

http://www.blackcat-tv.com/

2) The anime series School Rumble
has to do with the Yagami High School.

In one episode the students rescue animals
from harsh treatment at a zoo.

As they prove to those who try to recapture
them, the animals are noble creatures that
know how to live together. One of those animals
happens to be a Wolf.

http://www.mmv.co.jp/special/school-rumble/
http://schoolrumble.tv/

These first two sources were tipped to us
by Dire Wolf.

3) Fables in the issues 81-83
recently has been running their
mini-series called in homage to the original
story, The Jungle Book.

Bigby Wolf in this miniseries, along with
Mowgli have been going back to Mowgli's
homeland to see if it's ok to go back there
after their war against the evil
Adversary.

Find it at your local comic shop folks.
Don't miss out on it.

WOLVES DELISTED BY OBAMA ADMINISTRATION

Obama's pick of Ken Salazar as
Secretary of the Interior was one
that we were not in support of.

And here is why.

As of today, it was announced that
Ken Salazar delisted the Wolf all
across the United States.

He felt that they were no longer in
danger from extinction.

http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5gzcyTzjckUWtvo--0a2YfEEmT8nQD96OLVH00

There is more to it than that Salazar.

Now Wolves are going to be hunted
and their sadistic pleasures in doing
it will be fulfilled.

States like Wisconsin, are going to slaughter
Wolves in livestock
issues that could be prevented with
Non-Lethal Methods and PF Ranching with
numbers we can't even begin to estimate.

Although they are 'protected' in Wyoming,
their fate is clear if this trend continues.

Wolves and all life must be protected. It
would be no different than if we took away
laws that protect people because of how many
there are of a certain ethnicity.

Regardless of McCain or Obama getting
into office, this decision is clear:

The Wolves lost. That is why we did NOT
support any political party in the election
because politics is corrupt and dooms
nations and continues to serve itself rather
than the interests of all, Humans and Nature
alike.

Obama claimed to unite America, but
instead, he caused once again a divide
in this country's history.

One forged in blood and atrocity. And this
was through Ken Salazar, a man who supported
in the past, pesticides that would murder
predators.

http://www.csmonitor.com/2008/0118/p02s01-usgn.html

A man supported by various non profit groups
like Colorado Environmental Coalition. As told
about in Field and Stream..which thanks to their
support, Wolves are going to be slaughtered.

http://fieldandstream.blogs.com/news/2008/12/update-environm.html
http://www.ourcolorado.org/about-us/who-we-are/

We need your help folks. Oppose this delisting.

A) Contact Obama, and Ken Salazar in opposition
to this. And sue the Interior if you can.

http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/
http://www.doi.gov/contact.html

B) Contact your government officials, no matter
where you are on the planet and your media channels.

This war must end!

WOLF NEWS 3/6/2009

There are some news items
that are on this edition.

1) Obama called for a
memorandum memorandum that
suspends a regulation.

This regulation was created
by the Bush Administration on
it's way out to allow the USFWS
and other agencies on the federal
level, to do whatever they
wanted with species without consulting
higher powers.

An order was placed to review
whether that regulation would
be promoting "the purposes of the [Endangered Species Act]."

This just saved the necks of many
Wolves.

If this wasn't called, Wolves would
be delisted and more would die.

But the process still means they could
be in danger.

Wolves' protection must be permanent.
You must thank Obama for the memorandum,
in addition to the Secretary of the Interior
Ken Salazar.

This is also because it is the 160th Anniversary
of the Interior.

Hopefully it will be a great year and
continue to follow in these footsteps.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/kent/7921400.stm

3) Unfortunately 3 Wolves were struck to death
on the Trans-Canada Highway in Banff National Park.

This is because portions of the park are not
fenced off. This is unacceptable.

http://www.piquenewsmagazine.com/pique/index.php?cat=C_News&content=Mtn+news+1610

WOLF-DOG NEWS 3/6/2009

1) The Senate approved a measure, SSB 5383, sponsored

http://www.omakchronicle.com/nws/n090305b.shtml

You must oppose this. If you do not, many
could die and be banned from being owned
by decent people and taken care of by

WOLF NEWS 3/2/2009

There has been alot of news going
on in the past 4 days so it's
in two parts.

1) In Wisconsin two hunters
who 'mistook' a Wolf for a
Coyote, shot it to death at the
Manitowoc County town of Newton.

She was a Lone Wolf, who traveled
150 miles just to get murdered.

Already one incident occurred
last December in Lafayette County
of the same type. And last fall
the same thing happened again.

http://www.fox11online.com/dpp/news/local_ap_manitowocco_wolf_shot_200902270923_rev1

This needs to stop. Hunting (of
Wolves is illegal) is
immoral and should be banned.
And those who do it need to be
prosecuted.

Take action today.

A) Contact the officials of Manitowoc and Newton
and ask for them to prosecute these hunters.

http://www.manitowoc-county.com/countyexec/default.asp?ID=29
http://www.manitowoc-county.com/countyboard/default.asp?ID=3

Newton Town Chairman
(920) 726-4562
Newton, WI 53063

B) Contact the Wisconsin Government. This is
why the ESA Endangered Status must standard
must stand for Wolves. Hunting should also be
banned so other Animals shouldn't suffer.

Wyoming Gov. Officials
http://www.congress.org/congressorg/officials/congress/?district=02&lvl=C&azip=53562&state=WI

C) Lastly contact the District Attorney from Manitowoc
County. We need to show him that hunting is immoral
and that no Animal should be subjected to it. It doesn't
matter if it is illegal or not, it's a moral issue.

http://www.co.manitowoc.wi.us/department/dept_home.asp?ID=10

2) Adrian Wydeven and the mass Wolf murderers
of the Wisconsin DNR are applying for a permit
to manage Wolves.

http://www.wausaudailyherald.com/article/20090125/WDH0101/901250650/1981/WDHopinion

And he isn't the only one who keeps selling
them out..

Eric Anderson, the 'professor of wildlife ecology'
at Wisconsin-Stevens Point is fine with the
culling of Wolves through the state and open
hunts which would 'preserve' the Wolf and minimize
damage that would be 'caused' by the animals.

Mr. Anderson, the damage is caused by the lack
of use of NLM's and PF Ranching, and it's proliferation.

This is despite Obama halting the delisting
of Wolves once he came into office.

Once again these agencies and 'people' are more interested
in bloodshed rather than protecting natural
species like they are supposed to.

This is also because instead of using Non-Lethal
Methods and PF Ranching:

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

which Wydeven has
known about for years, he prefers to use a gun.
And his lack of humanity.

And people like Anderson sell out nature, which
they are supposed to be educating about. Mr. Anderson
wouldn't be advocating the culling of ethnic
people if you were in a human rights class for
co-existence and a 'healthy' population of people
would he? Probably not.

He is much like David Mech, faking to protect them til
they have small pockets of population and then supporting
their rights being taken away and letting them die.

What can you do?

A) Oppose this hideous plan of the Wisconsin DNR.
And sue if possible.

Contact in opposition and sue the DNR if possible.

Adrian.Wydeven@Wisconsin.gov
715-762-1363

B) Contact the Wisconsin Officials above.

C) Contact Eric Anderson, the 'professor of wildlife ecology'
at Wisconsin-Stevens Point in opposition to his stance
on Wolves.

As one quote I heard once: "Science needs ethics." -- Otacon, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty.

And both were on the same radio show before as well
called Route 51, when the battle started over delisting
in Wisconsin in 2007.

http://www.wpr.org/regions/wau/route51/archives.cfm
http://clipcast.wpr.org:8080/ramgen/wpr/wau/rt51070208_wolf.mp3

know that their actions are being sabotaged by
the Wisconsin DNR and supported by Eric Anderson.

This war needs to be stopped now!

http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/
http://www.doi.gov/contact.html

3) Once again Wildlife Services and the
Montana FWP failed to use Non-Lethal
Methods and PF Ranching and caused the
deaths of 11 Cattle.

Blaming the Wolf once again for their
lack of being able to successfully
prevent livestock issues through
these methods, they decided to
go through with murdering one of the
Lebo Peak Pack and collared another.

The Martin ranch was given a murder
permit for one Wolf if a Wolf was
spotted on their property.

They in early February wanted the
Wolf delisted ASAP so they can continue
their own version of oppressing and
slaughtering Wolves..

http://www.billingsgazette.net/articles/2009/02/28/news/state/28-wolfie.txt

What can you do?

A) Contact Montana FWP and Wildlife

and sue if possible.

C) Please contact your media and officials about these issues.
http://www.heartofthewolf.org/MediaGovernmentContacts.htm

D) Contact Obama, Biden and Salazar about
NLMs and PF Ranching and how these agencies
in Montana aren't using them. And how they
shouldn't be slaughtering Wolves in livestock
issues. As well as taking the blame, and not
giving to the Wolf for these livestock losses.

4) In a week or possibly two, the Idaho
Department of Fish and Game wants to have
Wolves slaughtered en masse in the Clearwater
region.

This will be up to 100 Wolves that will
be slaughtered.

This plan is supported by none other than
Steve Nadeau.

Excuses from ungulate numbers dropping to
saying that the state's economics loss is
due to Wolves since hunters have to compete
for Elk.

http://www.mtexpress.com/index2.php?ID=2005125045

How can that be when the world has been hurting
economically in reality due to the whole
Wall Street, Banking, Loan collapse that caused
the Recession, or Depression as some claim in
the first place?

This is a scheme to support the hunting
industry and shoot Wolves to boost their
economy with money. Blood money.

Especially since Wolves don't overpopulate
areas with prey, it is people that continue to overpopulate
the world and exploit it.

Stop this folks. We don't have much time.

Contact these officials to halt the IDFG's
plans.

Thanks. Part 2 is up next.

5) In Kalispell, Montana, a rally
created by hunters was done last
Friday and Saturday.

This was by wearing orange vests
and standing outside of the
Kalispell Fish Wildlife and Parks
HQ.

The event's organizer, Tom Welch
thinks they can make an impact
by saying that they need Wolves
delisted. This instead of
originally saying they
want them delisted.

The news station that reported on
this said that in December a Wolf
pack 'had' to be killed by Montana
FWP because of livestock issues.

And they said that the hunters said
that wildlife numbers are declining
at alarming rates.

That's distorting facts, if there were
any.

Non-Lethal Methods and PF Ranching
prevent livestock issues. And Wolves
use to live in Montana and are vital to the
ecosystems there.

The hunters just don't want to share
with Elk, which no Elk equals a Rocky
Mountain National Park situation.

This is where you have too much of a
prey species, the ecosystem declines
and something has to be done.

Hunters and their ilk shouldn't be
hunting and have no idea what they
are doing, except for murder.

http://www.montanasnewsstation.com/Global/story.asp?S=9920816&nav=menu227_7

Even worse is how Welch and his rag
tag hunting group may merge with the
Utah group 'Sportsmen for Wildlife'.

http://dailyinterlake.com/articles/2009/02/25/news/local_montana/news_8764555438_04.txt

What you can do?

A) Contact the Montana Newsstation and
reveal the truth that livestock issues
can be successfully prevented through
the use of Non-Lethal Methods and
PF Ranching.

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

Hunters are out for their own interests
for hunting Elk, not actually knowing
the importance of Wolves in an ecosystem.

Plus hunting is immoral and should be banned.

Here's a website you might find of interest to contact
in opposition to...

http://www.sfwsfh.org/

Gov. Bill Ritter of Colorado, who is a Democrat
has been reported that he said on a radio interview
on 850 KOA, that hunting is a vital part of the economy.

And that he said this because he is an angler.

He also says that adding a .75$ hike on hunting
application to go towards wildlife protection
shows hunter and anglers protection towards the
environment.

Ritter was asked how much has been raked in.
He said he didn't know and then said about 50,000
to 1,000,000. The host wondered if it it was worth
it. Ritter replied that the higher officials in
the state thinks it is...

6) A Scottish Wolf Center, called Camperdown Wildlife Centre in Dundee, is being given dead
squirrels to feed the Wolves there from a second culling program

Apparently this is to revitalize the Red Squirrel
population. Already the battle lines have been drawn,
and surprisingly among those who are for against and
for the cull.

Ken Neil of the Saving Scotland Red Squirrel project,
said the cull was working to rebuild the Red Squirrel
population.

Ross Minett of the campaign group Advocates for Animals
is against it because the Wolves are being fed food
that they would not ordinarily hunt. Plus the government
there would save money by feeding the Wolves with the
dead squirrels.

Quite a conundrum huh? This is the end of the result
of Humans interrupting the cycle of Nature.

This is because Grey Squirrels were introduced from
American into Scotland. They in the 1800's were fashion
adornments for the gardens of those who were rich and
they apparently overpopulated the area.

http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/2009/03/02/anger-over-plan-to-feed-squirrels-to-wolves-86908-21164583/

Whose side are you on?, as one comic saga asked several
years ago said. Sound off on who you would join. The
Red Squirrel Project or Advocates for Animals?

Drop us a line at heartofthewolf1@hotmail.com
or wherever we are.

7) In Sweden a Wolf Safari is offered and
you can possibly see them.

Alistair Mccann of Vildmarksguiden is
planning for tracking in Northern Sweden.

The safari's can be planned up to March
31st.

You have to be out in the area they
take you to for one to two days.

Alistair has said that customers come from
Germany and Holland. Alistair also sees
Wolves as a invaluable tool for tourism
in Sweden.

http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5457

We will do our best to find the details on how to get
to go on this safari if possible.

Lastly, there have been alot of programs I have been
watching on TV. Those WHEN ANIMALS ATTACK shows like
on Discovery Channel, and Fox on Digital Cable.

The thing is the tragedy in alot of these cases, with
Wolves, or any animal is that because of the disregard
for Nature by Humans, these animals are shot to death
later on. This is when they accidentally attack a person
because previous Humans to the area have been either
feeding them, or otherwise. This happens in parks.

These animals will not be be rehabilitated or kept
in captivity. There is no forgiveness or compassion
showed by Wildlife Officials. They will destroy the
Animal. It isn't fair or ethical.

So contact your Fish and Wildlife organizations for
your state and ask them to reverse this and to get
animals in these incidents rehabilitated or kept
in captivity out of the range of Humans. Like at
sanctuaries.

Also, find out about the different Animal species
where you plan to go and respect them. Don't feed
them and don't leave food out there for them to
get. If you encounter a predator animal, do not run.
They will think you are prey at that point.

Make yourself look imposing and big if they approach
by standing up as stall as you can.

Make sure
you have pepper spray, which is a non-lethal means
to stop the conflict.

Thanks and until next time this has been Wolf News.

WOLF NEWS 2/26/2009

1) Staff members of the Idaho Public Television
who apparently are subscribing to the false
ideology of Wolves being a problem are going
to throw in this video on youtube into the
mix.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Re644qgnCtw

This video shows Gold Eagles being used
to slaughter Wolves by Humans in Mongolia.

Oppose this for one by contacting
the Mongolian U.S. Embassy asking
for them to pressure the Mongolian
government to end this practice.

2) Antelope Pack Wolves in Jackson Hole, Wyoming
have mange, which is a deadly disease to
them.

It's caused by mites, but irritation and
infestation causes Wolves to scratch off
fur and leads to possible hypothermia and
death. Pups are a prime target for it.

Mike Jimenez who has been interfering with
the lives with this pack for some time and
has ended the lives of many Wolves, claims
to be saddened. Yet he won't life a finger
to cure them of their plight.

After all mange was introduced into Montana
by the Montana government back in the early
1900s.

And if Humanity is already going to play
the Truman Show with all Animal life, why
not do it in a positive direction?

http://www.jhguide.com/article.php?art_id=4294

3) A female Wolf by the dubbed callous
codename of 314F has been tracked
to Eagle County, Colorado. She
was searching for a Wolf to fall
in love with and have children.

This Wolf needs to be protected by
the Colorado Division of Wildlife
and the USFWS.

This is the third Wolf over the past
five years in Colorado.

The USFWS needs to take the initiative
on this and get this Wolf a love interest
and start a Wolf population in
Rocky Mountain National Park.

This would be to stop the hideous culling
of Elk by man, to bring back a broken
ecosystem. And revitalize the economy
by boosting tourism.

The USFWS doesn't want to reintroduce Wolves
there because they don't want to do their
job. Well guess what, time to step up
to the plate and actually do it.

TURKISH WOLF MURDERED ON TAPE.

1) A horrific incident as of late
has occurred in Turkey.

Citizens chained a Wolf's leg
and tortured it for almost
4 minutes as it was recorded
on video by having Dogs bite
at it.

Finally when the citizens,
if you wish to call them that,
had enough 'fun', they
commanded the Dogs all at once
to kill the poor Wolf.

http://www.gopetition.com/petitions/stop-animal-cruelty-in-turkey.html
(Due footage of torture, violence, death and blood,
parental discretion is advised)

This behavior is intolerable.
Not to mention it is illegal.

A petition is going right now
at that same link. Sign
it if you can.

Also write letters to the following email
addresses here:

http://apps.facebook.com/causes/posts/129646

Thanks to WOLF for tipping us on this, Asli Han Gedik, Hans
Lak for the information that you can contact these officials.

2) WOLF created a petition calling
for the end of the reign of Ed Bangs.

Ed Bangs has caused ever since the reintroduction
of Wolves into the U.S., the destruction of
countless Wolves.

He will not cease his activities. Thus WOLF created
a petition.

This below is a link we created for what it contains.
If you want to sign it,

send your name and a message
of support to WOLF at: wildwolf1982@ca.rr.com

Thanks folks for your support!

3) This week the Alaskan Board of Game decides how
to 'manage' Bears and Wolves. This is very bad
for both Animals. It won't be long until their
regular culling programs will possibly start again.

http://www.adn.com/news/alaska/wildlife/story/698120.html

We must stop their plans.

WOLF NEWS 2/20/2009

1) The Swedish Natural Resources
Agency is once again on the attack against
Wolves.

http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5429

They want county governments in the
country to take more decisions on
the slaughter of predators.

They say that there is certain room
for managed hunts of Wolves in addition
to a controlled hunt.

This agency wants to make it so Wolves
are immigrated to get fresh genes to
inbred Swedish Wolf populations.

How does that make sense when they
say there is a possibility for another hunt
on Wolves and that will be if the population
grows?

It is a paradox that will once again bring
things back to how Wolves don't have a viable
genetic base.

If anything, the population of Humans always
dwarfs that of Natural life.

Wolverines could be under the gun too in the future.

http://www.onlinenewspapers.com/sweden.htm

2) Republican Sen. Joe Balyeat of Bozeman supports Senate Bill
183 which would eliminate federal and state
rules on Wolves.

It would also force the Montana attorney general's office to
seek compensation for livestock issues from the federal
government.

In response the attorney general as well as the Montana FWP
opposes this measure. The Montana FWP and USFWS doesn't protect
Wolves and it is unknown exactly what the effects of this
Senate Bill did pass.

Will this go through? If it was like Wyoming's
Bills that were recommended, probably not.

Hopefully the Obama Administration's Ken Salazar will
keep them Endangered Status and stop the destruction of
Wolves in livestock issues. This is through the implementation,
education and enforcement of Non-Lethal Methods and
PF Ranching.

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

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/chi-ap-mt-xgr-wolfdelisting,0,1628327.story

3) A news article from Alaska's Newsminer, clearly
supports aerial hunting programs on Wolves.

It is written by Tim Mowry who is a hunter.
http://newsminer.com/staff/tim-mowry/

To offset this support he tries to demonize
Wolves and their process of territorial disputes.

Nature does what it does. That doesn't give us
the right to go in and shoot and control it.

Period.

To read the article and reply here it is.
http://newsminer.com/news/2009/feb/19/canid-carnage/#comments

4) An incident caused casualties on both sides recently.

In Minnesota, a Dog was killed by Wolves from the Minnesota Wildlife Connection.

The Wolves were allowed to run around near rural areas free,
though in an ironic token, the Dog owner (Carlyle Ziegler)
wants her puppy to run around free.

Ziegler claims that she didn't know Wolves were nearby.
If this is true, this is a regrettable tragedy on fault
of the Connection. And now has caused fear and mistrust
of already feared and maligned creature.

Wednesday night at Sandstone City, a city council meeting
was called regarding Natural Animals being allowed to
run loose in the area. Natural animals were banned
being in city limits. This resolution will be in place until
some kind of ordinance can be created.

Thus what impact will that cause if educational programs
for example, can't bring like Wolves into schools for tours
to promote Wolves?

This is a tragedy indeed.

WOLF AND WOLF DOG NEWS 2/18/2009

Here is the latest Wolf news.

1) A Wolf who was murdered is being
investigated by the Michigan DNR
once again because it is currently
illegal to hunt them. It should be
illegal always.

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/chi-ap-mi-wolfpoaching,0,6868779.story

A $3,000 reward has been offered
by the DNR for info leading to an arrest
and conviction.

http://www.michigan.gov/dnr

2) The Michigan DNR is also doing a yearly
survey to find out how many Wolves live
in North Michigan.

This is because in 2004 a hunter shot
what he believed what was a Wolf, was
actually a Coyote. Whether the hunter was
telling the truth is irrelevant.

Hunting is immoral and should be banned.

The survey will end March 10th.

http://www.cheboygannews.com/sports/x426329105/DNR-tracking-wolf-population-with-survey

David Thompson Secondary School in British Columbia
on February 25th, will having an event called, The Mystery

WOLF-DOG NEWS 1/18/2009

The Montana Senate is currently endorsing a plan to ban
Wolf Hybrids in the state.

Sen. Jim Peterson says the issue arose after livestock had been killed by a suspected Wolf.
Only after the animal had been tracked and killed did authorities realize it was a hybrid wolf.

Peterson says such animals should be banned.

The Senate unanimously endorsed his Senate Bill 344 in an initial vote Tuesday.
If it clears a final vote in the chamber it will go the House of Representatives..

Especially since Senator Jim Peterson is a Senator from South Dakota.

WOLF NEWS 2/12/2009

1) Here is some good
news from Wyoming.

The Wyoming House of
Representatives decided
to vote down House Bill
32 which would have been
a big threat to Wolves.

They are deciding on what
to do once the Obama
Administration makes
a decision regarding the
status of Wolves in the
U.S.

http://www.fox12news.com/Global/story.asp?S=9829686

We hope the endangered status
of Wolves stays.

But some do not. Such as
David Mech of the International
Wolf Center.

http://www.mndaily.com/2009/02/10/wolf-trackers-follow-packs-challenge-myths

He wants them delisted, and doesn't
care that they will be hunted.

This man makes books which he profits
off of Wolves, yet he doesn't mind
seeing their bodies on floors and
walls and them running in terror.

And although the article says
that hunters won't be very interested
in hunting them, it still leaves
them wide open to danger from
extremists who want to hunt them.
Hunting is wrong, no matter how
many are cut down in a blaze of
gunfire.

And the extremists are the hunters
which Mech doesn't like.

This is ridiculous. If Wolves
are delisted, it will lead Michigan
and Wisconsin open to attack
from state agencies who will have no problem
in slaughtering Wolves in livestock issues.

And a small pocket of a population doesn't
constitute success. Especially since
Wolves were once nearly all over the
world.

He is nothing short of a Sheep in Wolf's
Clothing.

To write to David Mech here is his email:
mechx002@tc.umn.edu

I replied to the source article and
which is screwed up is how on of David
Mech's supporters is Rebecca Schwanke
Wildlife Biologist, Alaska Dept. of Fish & Game.
(rebecca.schwanke@alaska.gov)


This is the same ADFG that slaughters
Wolves in yearly cullings. Scientifically
claiming it is necessary, yet doing it
in reality because it benefits hunters
who want to eat ungulates.

2) Here is more about the female Mexican
Gray Wolf that was found murdered recently.

She and her sister were born at the Minnesota
Zoo in 2003. They with a third sister
were brought to South Salem in November 2004.

Her sister dubbed by the Wildlife Conservation
Center, F838 was shot to death in Arizona in 2006.

The murdered Mexican Gray Wolf, called F836 was
released into Nature two months ago. It didn't
turn out well as you can see.

More information can be read here on more details.

http://www.acorn-online.com/joomla15/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=20160:south-salem-wolf-killed-in-arizona&catid=19:lewisboro-news&Itemid=955

3) Ranchers who are being careless with
cattle in Saskatchewan, Canada are having
their 'concerns' met with a bounty/culling.

http://www.cbc.ca/technology/story/2009/02/10/wolves-sask.html

This is where the local government is offering
the bounty of $100 for every Wolf corpse brought
to the RM office.

This is deplorable.

Especially when a rancher by the name of Richard
Towens did a horrific thing by shooting a Wolf
to death, and hanging the corpse to shock other
Wolves from coming back.

It was approved by wildlife authorities.

And Paul Paquet, a Saskatchewan Wolf Specialist,
connected to the University of Calgary, said that
livestock practices can be changed to prevent these
issues.

He said that a majority of farmers and ranchers
will discard their livestock in open pits and
it is an attractant that leads to depredation on
live animals.

That goes on in the U.S. in New Mexico and Arizona
for instance.

And this is what happens when Non-Lethal Methods
and PF Ranching are not used in addition to prevention,
rather than destruction.

Wolves are also not safe in Canada, here is why:

Wolf hunting is normally only allowed by permit.

If livestock issues happen, officials will grant permission to shoot the animals.

And claimed accounts of Wolves being sighted, but
no proof has led up to this. Fear. Fear leads
to hate and suffering, as one of the best quotes
from the new Star Wars trilogy illustraed by Yoda.

THIS MUST BE OPPOSED.

The banning of livestock pits, hunting,
not believing in claims that no one can confirm,
and using, educating and implementing
Non-Lethal Methods and PF Ranching, is the
only way this can be halted.

WOLF NEWS 2/10/2009

1) Wyoming's House Bill
32 is going to have
lots of effects if it
goes through.

It will be allowing
permits in the cases
of livestock issues
still, which that issue
has been going on ever
since Wolves have been
listed anyway.

Wolves would not be
shot to death in livestock
issues if their population
goes then below 15 breeding
pairs.

This bill hasn't passed the
House but ultimately
we need to stop it if all
possible by contacting the
Wyoming Federal Court.

This bill of course is
the brainchild of Rep.
Pat Childers R-Cody of
the House Joint Travel,
Recreation, Wildlife and
Cultural Resources Interim
Committee.

Rep. Dave Bonner R-Powell,
says there is a provision
to seek making a memorandum
that Montana and Idaho would
have to work to capture,
transport, exchange and release
Wolves in and out of the trophy
game area of Wyoming to ensure
genetic interchange of
the Wolf population.

This is all ridiculous.

If HB 32 goes through, Wolves
can still be slaughtered as
they are now, in livestock issues
and in the outside of the northwestern
region, can be then shot for any
reason.

http://powelltribune.com/index.php/content/view/725/1/

Livestock issues shouldn't
be happening in the first place
since Non-Lethal Methods and PF Ranching
have been proven to work.

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

Wolves shouldn't be delisted. This would
cause certain death for many Wolves.

WHAT YOU CAN DO?

A) Contact Wyoming Federal Court to
not support HB 32

http://www.wyd.uscourts.gov/htmlpages/courtinfo.html#Executive

B) Oppose Childers and Bonner for supporting
that bill and creating it.

2) Sweden has been active lately
in anti-Wolf activity.

Last week although the Natural
Resources Agency said no as in
regards to controlled hunts
in five counties (Gavleborg,
Dalarna, Varmland, Orebro, Vastra
Gotaland.

The Swedish Hunting League
wants to shoot three Wolves
in six regions.

Their claim of 'logic' dictates
that it is to constrain the population
and to prevent attacks on domestic
Animals and Dogs.

As you already know, Predator Friendly
Ranching prevents livestock issues,
and animal husbandry practices prevent
Dog attacks. Also if you don't hunt,
your Dog won't get attacked by Wolves.

Simple solutions.

The SNRA turned it down because there
was a question on 18 Wolves, there is
no mandate to cull them, and the counties
oppose the hunt.

Thank goodness.

http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5403

But despite this news, the Wolf that was
being hunted in Herrestad has been assassinated.

This was the Herrestad Wolf that supposed
the Wolf Hunt ran out for.

http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5338

The hunters were SUPPOSED to have filed
an extension with the SNRA, but nothing
showed up on the news from Sweden.

This is a sad day for that Wolf.

The corpse of that murdered Wolf will be
taken to the 'Swedish Veterinary Medicine
Institute to see if it is indeed the Wolf
they have been stalking.

http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5410

And the Swedish Hunting League also
recently applied for a controlled hunt
for two Wolves in the Jangen region,
which is in the Sunne, Hagfors, and
Torsby communes.

They say that three Dogs have been killed
and another has been 'attacked'. A Wolf
was shot there originally in November
2007.

In their application, they say that
there is a new Wolf pair in the region.

Instead of trying to live with them
two years later, the SHL wants to blast
more Wolves as usual.

Animal Husbandry Practices and no hunting
can prevent Dog deaths.

This is absolutely horrible that the SHL
wants this.

Also the SNRA shouldn't have had that
Herrestad Wolf shot to death. And they
shouldn't allow hunting of Wolves, ever.

This needs to stop.

Here is the contacts for both the SNRA
and SHL.

3) An interesting article appeared recently.

It talks about the origin of black colored Wolves,
and their origin.

A scientific study was done by genetics professor Greg Barsh, MD, PhD
and Tovi Anderson, along with scientists at the University of
California-LA, University of Calgary, the National Park Service
at Yellowstone National Park, the National Human Genome Research
Institute, as well as scientists from Italy and Sweden did a
big project where they took DNA from Wolves around the world.

And they found a shocking discovery.

That black Wolves' fur color was introduced from Dogs. That's
right, Dogs were responsible for the genetic mutation that
gave many Wolves in the U.S. their black fur. And most of the
Wolves that are black are in North America.

Thus this would mean that Native Americans that came from
the Bering Strait were responsible for that.

And the scientists said that with the decline of Wolf habitat
due to the norther expansion of boreal forests which is tied
to global warming, the black fur will help save their lives.

WOLF NEWS 2/5/2009

States whose government
officials already
fear and hate the
Wolf have already
resorted to making bills.
These are bills because
they don't like seeing
the Wolves protected.

1) Idaho's Moscow Republican Sen.
Gary Schroeder, who owns a fur-trading business
in north central Idaho, introduced a predator
giveaway bill in the Senate Resources and Environment
Committee on Monday.

He suggests they should
reduce Idaho's Rocky Mountain Gray Wolf population to a
'manageable level' by offering them -
live - to other states.

Idaho Gov. C.L. "Butch" Otter and the state's bipartisan congressional
delegation also sent a letter to Obama asking him to resolve the issue quickly.

http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/local/6420ap_id_xgr_wolf_transport.html

It shows the obsessive need that
the Idaho Government along with
the government in Montana and Wyoming
to micromanage and destroy the
lives of Wolves.

They don't want co-existence and
respect with them at all.

It is fear and hate of Wolves.
The idea that if you cannot control
something, you have to hate it, instead
of living in harmony with it.

Schroeder wants 500-600 Wolves.

The Human population of Idaho is
more enormous and keeps growing like
all populations around the world.

Want to know how Humans are in Idaho
right now?

1,523,816

Big difference wouldn't one say?

To send your thoughts to these officials contact them here:

Gary Schroeder
gschroeder@senate.idaho.gov

Idaho Gov. C.L. "Butch" Otter and other officials.
http://www.congress.org/congressorg/officials/congress/?district=02&lvl=C&azip=83701&state=ID

This bill has passed The Senate Resources and Environment Committee
allowing the Idaho Department of Fish and Game to contact other states about
receiving gray wolves, once delisted by the federal government.

The other states would pay for all the costs.

Schroeder ever goes further than this. In his
own words...

"At the same time, we need to have authority to depopulate those that threaten
to kill livestock, human beings or pets."

Nate Helm, spokesman for the Sportsmen for Fish and Wildlife-Idaho
wants this to happen.

The Fish and Game Commission has not voted on the bill, yet.

We must contact Sharon Kiefer, department assistant director
to oppose this as well. As well as Obama, Biden, and the
new Secretary of the Interior, Ken Salazar.

http://www.magicvalley.com/articles/2009/02/03/news/local_state/154142.txt

Have them strike down all this and what we will talk about next.

2) Today the State House Committee on Travel, Recreation, Wildlife and Cultural Resources
recommended House Bill 32 in Wyoming.

It involves 'protecting' livestock and wild ungulates from Wolves and would continue to
classify Wolves as predators in most of the state.

The bill also authorizes the Wyoming Game and Fish Commission to work with
Idaho and Montana to move Wolves as necessary to assure genetic interchange among the states'
Wolf populations.

Which would mean more Wolves would be shot to death
rather than NLM's and PF Ranching being used.

Population caps would exist, so how can moving Wolves
work? Not to mention the stress that would put them
under could kill them.

They also could be shot for any reason in most of the
state. So how could they survive?

them as well in separate letters.

3) In Arizona, a Wolf was shot to death.
One that was Wolf Conservation Center
in South Salem.

The USFWS as usual is only investigating
it because it is currently a crime
to kill Wolves.

http://lohud.com/article/20090204/NEWS01/902040407/-1/newsfront

If anyone has any information contact
the USFWS at:

http://www.fws.gov/southwest/es/mexicanwolf/

4) The Swedish Natural Resources Agency
has once again waged war on Wolves.

In a recent move, they will will lengthen the test period for the increased
'protective hunting' of predators to three years.

This new regulation has been used already for one and a half years and means that
it is permitted to shoot a Wolf in the near area of pastured domestic animal plots,
if the animal owner suspects that the Wolf will attack tame animals or dogs.

Of course as we know this can be prevented through
NLM's and PF Ranching.

The prosecutor's office and the country's police agency, which have taken
part in this inquiry, considers that protection of predators in practice
is out of play with the new regulation.

As if the Wolves were protected in the first place.

That's because under the one and half years rule has taken
the lives of six Wolves and one Bear.

http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5391

This has to stop.

5) Palin still is waging war against
Wolves ever since she has had to return back
to Alaska.

http://blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/seattlepolitics/archives/161132.asp

Ashley Judd, is even speaking out against
the aerial hunts and predator control
programs that slaughter many Wolves.

Palin must be stopped as well. And the
Alaskan Government.

Contact Obama and Biden and Salazar
to get this stopped.

Especially since the Alaskan Government
is a corrupt institution that
must be replaced. Not unlike the
Northern Rockies and other states
whose governments are against Wolves,
with ethical minded people.

As well as government agencies.

http://www.gov.state.ak.us/news.php?id=1627

It is bizarre saying that she says
that she supports the program saying
it's based on science, yet she
doesn't believe in evolution, and
wants creationism taught in schools.

She is of a church of fanaticism,
yet wants Wolves dead, yet that
is against the first commandment
in the Christian Bible.

Defenders has it's share of corruption
and hypocrisy, but Palin is worse
on the ladder.

1) “Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the flag,
and begin slitting throats.” HL Mencken

Recently we told you about a meeting that
was going to take place today in Wyoming
in regards to quite a few Wolf bills.

Consult 1/28/2009 for details.

The status of Wolves as being Endangered
is up in the air right now still but
that doesn't mean some are eager
for Wolves to be managed by the
state of Wyoming.

Which House Bill 21 was supported.
It would make Wolves Trophy Game
status all across the state which
would make it so they would be
still slaughtered in livestock issues.
It would certainly get them
delisted. This bill was created
by Rep. Keith Gingery.

And they would be hunted though
it would be regulated. Never mind
the fact that Rep. Keith Gingery, of Jackson
supports it. Guess who else does?

THE SIERRA CLUB AND JACKSON HOLE
CONSERVATION ALLIANCE.

Both groups as we have proven time
and again are dirty and this shows itself
again.

In particular it was Melanie Stein of Sierra Club and Franz Camenzind
who supported this bill.

Oh it gets worse. Guess who also supports
this bill?

Wyoming Outdoor Council, the Wyoming Wildlife Federation,
the Greater Yellowstone Coalition and Wyoming Conservation Voters!

This is a long list of groups that are willing
to sell their souls for victory and throw out
the whole reason they started their groups in the
first place!

To protect Wolves. To compromise their principles
for false victory is no victory at all. We cannot
sacrifice lives for victory. It would be no better
than bombing innocent civilians for the end of
a war in a nation.

Shame on these groups!

Especially the Wyoming Conservation Voters who
supports the Wyoming Game and Fish, who slaughters
Wolves and doesn't mind hunting.


Most of the livestock industry support House Bill
148 which would proceed with the delisting of
Wolves regardless of federal approval. That is
dangerous too for Wolves.

Either way, the Wolves lose with these bills.

Debate on these bills begins next Wed.

CONTACT ALL IN OPPOSITION TO THESE BILLS AND
THEIR SUPPORT OF THESE BILLS AS WELL. SUE

2) This part of the news gets
really disgusting, in a sexual
nature, so take the kids away.

WARNING!! WARNING!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!

Wolves in the horrific Wildlife
Science Center in Forest Lake
has decided to continue with
their disgusting experiments
and horrific practices.

Peggy Callahan decided to
practice rape on Wolves.

You heard me, rape.

She actually had her staff
hold a male Wolf and force
him to ejaculate sperm
for 'breeding purposes' of
course.

Guess what, that is illegal,
or at least it is in regards
to Dogs...

Here is one of the charges
that Michael Vick was slapped
with in 2007...

“rape stands,” hideous contraptions used to restrain female pit bulls during the breeding process.
http://www.lcanimal.org/cmpgn/cmpgn_007.htm

Sound familiar? Instead it's
people restraining the Wolf and
not a contraption.

And she had on January 6th,
female Wolves were forcibly
implanted with synthetic
hormones to stimulate ovulation.

They checked 'progress' through
the use of using a endoscope and
viewing the room.

The females were given anesthesia.

It doesn't matter what species
it is, you don't force reproduction
or sexual activity.

And forcing ejaculation out of a
Wolf is rape. Unfortunately since
she cloakes herself in false good
deeds and Wolves aren't Human, she
will not be tried, and prosecuted
for sex crimes.

She won't be registered as a sex
offender, or kept away from any
other Wolves. She will be allowed
to continue her practices that
are exactly like Michael Vick's
Dog Fighting ring, where they
shocked dogs and did raping of
dogs for reproduction.

A commenter on the source article
called it best, a puppy mill but
for Wolves.

This is sickening. This isn't
the first time Callahan has done
something this sick..

She was a part of a temporary
sterilization project of Wolves
for Canada to 'control' their
populations...

http://www.startribune.com/local/east/26226934.html?location_refer=Local%20+%20Metro#post_comments

Callahan also made a sick documentary,
which you can read our in-depth review
on it.

http://www.heartofthewolf.org/GrowingUpWolfReview.htm

This was on Animal Planet awhile ago.

This is horrible folks. Her experiments
need to stop, and her sanctuary should
be shut down, or replaced with a boss
and staff that won't resort to rape
and violation to 'save' a race.

http://www.startribune.com/local/38734457.html?elr=KArksLckD8EQDUoaEyqyP4O:DW3ckUiD3aPc:_Yyc:aUUsZ

"Given what society did to this animal to begin with, they need our support," Peggy
Callahan.

http://www.wildlifesciencecenter.org/subpages/contact.htm

This isn't support. It's sexual atrocity at
it's worst.

Make this issue known to the Minnesota
Legislature, your officials, and the media,
and newspapers. To everyone. Puppy Mills
are sick, now we got Wolf ones with instead
of dogfights and Michael Vick, we have
Peggy Callahan.

3) This week it has been reported that a
Wolf was 'mistaken' by a Coyote and
was murdered by hunters in South Dakota.

done in the first place. Since Wolves
are endangered, that is the only reason

WOLF-DOG NEWS 1/31/2009

Here is a petition to sign, it's rather
important since it is against SB 5383

http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/tell-wa-banning-wolf-dogs-is-not-the-answer

This would be a problem since that would
only shut down adoption of Wolf-Dogs in
Washington, and who knows what damage
that could do to shelters who are caring
for them.

If the bill passes this could seriously
carry serious implications for the rest
of the U.S. and the world.

WOLF NEWS 1/28/2008

Here is some new news
about Wolves.

We haven't seen any
news yet regarding the
listing status of Wolves
being delisted yet but we
will let you know if and
when they are or not.

1) Mexican Gray Wolves from Wolf
Haven International in Washington,
have been shipped to
Mexico to the
Wolf facility called the Amigos
Del Desierto De Coahuila.

The argument
for breeding these Wolves in
Mexico won't be presented
until 2010.

Their population in Mexico
is really low so hopefully
this will happen.

http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2008663969_apwawolfhaven.html

2) In Arizona a Mexican Gray female Wolf
was assassinated and dumped on Highway 260.

The body of this victim was found January 19th.

The only reason that the USFWS are investigating
this case and trying to find the murderer is
because they are endangered and it is currently
a crime to murder Mexican Gray Wolves.

There is a number to report clues and a reward
for any info on the case.

928-339-4232

http://www.tucsoncitizen.com/daily/local/108682.php

3) Cattle and Sheep farmers are wanting protection
over the reintroduction of Bears, Lynx, and Wolves
in Germany.

These predators species have finally getting the numbers
that they need to live.

Already fear of these animals has given to violence.

Bavarian hunters assassinated in 2006 a Brown Bear by
the name of Bruno.

The death even sparked horrible debate between Germany
and Italy over who had 'rights' over the Bear's dead
body.

But farmers are wanting compensation and rightly wanting
the use of livestock protection dogs which was the message
given by Carl Lauenstien, head of the German livestock association.

These farmers got it right now. And they should be
aided by their government to do the right thing.

Until this happens, the same problems will persist in the U.S.

Speak out for the GLA.

A) Contact the German Government and ask them
to give financial assistance to farmers for
compensation in livestock issues and especially
funding for Livestock Protection Dogs.

4) Combe Martin Wildlife Park, Devon, had
a Wolf escape. It is one 'owned' by Shaun Ellis,
which he has a scandalous record of his
own...

http://www.heartofthewolf.org/SpiritOfHypocrisy.htm

The Wolf luckily was recovered without incident.

This was despite the spokesman for the park saying,
and I quote:

"During the incident, park authorities said at no time
had the wolf posed any sort of threat to humans or other
animals and had not been in any danger herself."
Combe Martin Wildlife Park spokesman Kat Whitehouse-Tedd

Bizarre since Wolves rarely attack People if anything
and there has been no fatality on Humans for more than
100 years...

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/4318657/Wolf-escapes-from-zoo-by-gnawing-out-of-enclosure.html

5) In Sweden the situation for Wolves
gets worse. A female Wolf was shot yestrday
was assassinated in the Sandsjo region of
Varmland, Sweden.

The hunt was ongoing since hunting (which is
unethical) led to the use of hunting Dogs,
which were killed by Wolves who found the
Dogs to be on their territory.

Britt-Marie Nordquist of the Hunting League
of Varmland wants the whole pack eradicated
since they are pack animals. And she actually
used this quote.

"If we will manage wolves, I believe more that one gets to
pick an entire region. They are pack animals and region
maintainers of the same place, and then it plays a particularly
lesser roll how many they are. Rather that it may become an
orderly cleansing one time in such a case."

Yeah, that's how genocide gets started. Condemning
a species for what they are and gradually and systematically
slaughtering them.

And who else did that exactly happen to?

Native Americans, Jews, Albanians, Ethiopians, Cambodians,
Kurds...and the list goes on and on.

This has to stop. The Swedish Government
knew what was going on here and did nothing
to stop it and abated in this.

And Natural Resources section of the government
was primarily responsible of granting these
hunts when Wolves are SUPPOSED to be protected
to begin with.

This is no different that the USFWS in the
U.S. who destroys Wolves in livestock issues
while under the Endangered status.

Now this Wolf will be sent to the National
Veterinary Medicine for 'examination'.

For what? Cause of death? This isn't to solve
an unjust murder. We know what happened. This
is the defiling of a murder victim. The difference
is because it is not Human it's ok to do it.

The lack of respect shown to animals shows itself
and even if it were a Human victim, Humans don't
show enough respect for each other as a race anyway.

6B) A lone
Wolf that wandered out of the range that

wound up in Montana. A Wolf that was tagged
by him in Wyoming.

Lone Wolves according to Mike Jimenez
aren't being drawn into the delisting issue
surrounding the Wolves.

He says these cases have nothing to
do with the USFWS. He also says [thank goodness],
that the Wyoming Game and Fish cannot
collar all Wolves. We wish it were zero.

He still adds his number for individuals
to call him if they are having 'problems'.

Well we are still having problems with
Wyoming wanting Wolves slaughtered en
masse and in livestock issues.

Especially since that shouldn't be done.

7) Montana has been on a murder spree.

USFWS under the direction of Montana FWP
once again slaughtered Wolves. This time
five of them, west of Dillon. It was a
third depredation since December in that
area.

Which could have been prevented through
the use of Non-Lethal Methods and PF
Ranching.

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

One Wolf was slaughtered Jan 8th and four
also on Jan 17th.

USDA Wildlife Services put a radio
collar on a Wolf Jan. 20th.

8) There is a big issue
going on in Serbia.

We had a contact from Serbia of the
organization Epar.org.yu,
tell us that in Serbia there is
a huge problem going on.

A massive slaughter of animals
is going on by the hunting industry
at the behest of the government.

The government there is NOT using
methods to prevent rabies through
vaccinations.

Instead they contracted hunters,
which are already incensed by
the lure of slaughtering Animals
for a sadistic, psychopathic
thrill. And one to prove their
masculinity.

As a result, 3 Wolves have been
shot to death.

Which was reported in a recent
article.

http://www.blic.rs/srbija.php?id=75785
(Comment by clicking on Roza Sandor)

The whole issue has created slaughter
as well.

Not only are Wolves victims, but so are
Dogs, Cats, Foxes.

This also occurs in Croatia, Bosnia and
Herzegovina.

Hunters in Serbia number about 90,000
and control 75% of the territory.
Although their population is small compared
to the whole population, their power
is massive. Not unlike the rest of the
world where small numbers of corrupt
individuals control the affairs of it
and wage destruction on many.

They prevent citizens from seeing nature.

Most are uneducated and are usually
intoxicated and have alot of military
outfits and equipment.

Here is some of the casualties so far,

Thanks to Slavica for this valuable information.

WOLF MEDIA NEWS 1/27/2009

Here is the newest media about Wolves.

1) We purchased a new book
called Wolves: A Photographic Celebration.

It has alot of beautiful images
and information that isn't usually
known about.

Such as how there are Wolves in Afghanistan
and Iran for instance.

Naming men after Wolves is common in Hebrew.

Before Americans convinced Japanese
farmers in the late 19th-early 20th century,
that Wolves are a severe threat, they
believed that Wolves were benign
creatures that guarded crops.

(That perception has changed of course
in the modern era, thanks to movies and
shows like Princess Mononoke, Wolf's Rain,
Stormy Night, Ringing Bell, Rurouni Kenshin,
Peacemaker Kurogane and other shows.)

The only really big flaw is that it has
quotes from individuals that really
don't care about Wolves and are more
than willing to see them die.

Such as David Mech, Ed Bangs, and Wolf Trust.

And that is because it's quotes that makes
them look good. Though these people are
'Sheep in Wolf's Clothing'.

These people support hunting of Wolves and
the destruction of Wolves in livestock issues.

But it is for also a good price and has
information rarely known in most Wolf books.
So there is a price to knowledge. But in
this case, not a big one.

http://books.barnesandnoble.com/search/results.aspx?WRD=Wolves+a+photographic+celebration

Rating 2.5/5

2) SimAnimals has been released and
we have played it.

It so far is a really impressive game.

You help aid in the creation of the
ecosystem that exists already in the
game.

It is up to you on how to make it,
but the more you are kinder to it,
the better off it is.

It has many Animals, from Bear and Wolves
to different Plants.

The controls are perfect for the Wii.

You move around the screen with the
Nunchuck's stick. Grabbing and moving
the hand to determine the location of
Plants and Animals, is fluid and
really responsive.

Although the graphics would be characterized
as 'cute', don't let that turn you down from
this game if you don't like those kind
of graphics.

It is a really complex game as every Animal
and Plant has different needs and requires
objectives to complete for each of them.

And you do have to return to other levels
after completing certain objectives to
complete others.

This game also has lots of information about
the different Animals and Plants that you
use in the game.

So in short it is another great game to
have in the Sim franchise and deserves
to be played. Especially to bring interest
to Nature in real-life or by those who
enjoy Nature and topics like that who want
anything related to that. And it's a great
challenge for gamers.

WOLF NEWS 1/22/2009

1) It has been
announced that the
decision to delist
Wolves in the Northern
Rockies has been halted
temporarily.

http://www.idahostatesman.com/102/story/641879.html

The new Secretary of
the Interior, Ken
Salazar, will be
making the decision
as to whether Wolves
will be delisted and
the USFWS will be
reviewing things once
again.

We must convince Salazar
to uphold the delisting
and make a plan that will
permanently protect Wolves.

Here are the three points
you need to stress when
contacting him.

1) Wolves shouldn't be
delisted because they
will be hunted. The moment
they will be delisted, they
will be hunted once again
like the last time they
were delisted. No one
deserves to be hunted for
sport and destruction.

2) Wolves shouldn't be
slaughtered in livestock
issues. Regardless of being
delisted or not, they will
be murdered constantly.
This has to end as well.

Wolves don't have to be
murdered in livestock issues.
Through the use of Non-Lethal
Methods and PF Ranching, this
can be accomplished. Not just
Cheetah Conservation Fund,
our group, and certain ranchers
like Lamb and Wool.com are supporting
this, but Senators as well.

Like Senators Jon Tester (D-Wyo), John Barraso (R-Wyo),
Senator Max Baucus (D-Montana) and Senator Mike Crapo, (R-Idaho)
for passing the Wolf Livestock Loss Mitigation Act
which s designed for not just measly
compensation practices, but it will allow federal grants
to use what practices we have been writing and educating
about for years.

http://www.montanasnewsstation.com/Global/story.asp?S=9681324&nav=menu227_2

The idea of improved fencing, ranching
practices and the use of guard dogs (we learned about guard
dogs thanks to Cheetah Conservation Fund -- cheetah.org).

It's something that the USFWS and other
agencies won't subscribe to or educate, implement
or enforce for long term protection of Wolves.
Until they do, the war that humans wage on
Wolves will not end. Peace through understanding
and no violence is the only way.

3) Population caps is a deadly idea. Wolves need
to permanently on the Endangered Species List.
We personally think all species deserve protection.
But the Wolf especially since that if they are
delisted, they will never be safe. They never
were even while listed. Being slaughtered week
after week, year after year, has caused all
programs throughout the U.S. to be a failure.

And Wolves aren't safe even in Alaska where they
are subjected to illegal aerial cullings and
hunted by citizens on safari hunts.

http://www.backpacker.com/dogs_of_war_part_3_witness_a_wolf_skinning/videos/59

This has to end as well.

The decision as to whether they will be delisted
will be announced next Tuesday. We must convince
Ken Salazar, new Secretary of the Interior, and
the new President of the U.S., Barack Obama, that
they must not be delisted.

Obama says he is for the fight against climate
change, but what good will that do if there is
nothing left to live on it if we don't protect
the Earth's inhabitants like the Wolf?

This is a big threat because Idaho Fish and Game
want to strike back against the Wolves if they
are relisted since they are wrong in thinking
that Wolves are a threat to Deer and Elk herds.

How can that be when predators do not overbreed,
overpopulate and decimate their food sources
and ecosystems? They don't. There is only one
race that does it: man.

CONTACT INFO:

A) Contact Obama, Biden and Salazar about all
of this.

http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/
http://www.doi.gov/contact.html

Ask for them (Obama, Biden) to support Native Americans
and Gays/Bi-Sexual/Trangender rights and to fight for
them as well in separate letters.

2) In Cleveland, Ohio, 6 Mexican Gray Wolves
are on display at the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo.
They are 3 year-old sisters and have the names
Aprecia, Catori, Mitzi, Nancita, Sarita and Una.

It will be the first time that the Zoo has ever
had the Mexican Gray Wolves.

Like many Wolves, they were nearly eradicated due
to government programs [and to this day oppressed
and murdered in failed government programs].

Hours are here:

clemetzoo.com

3) Hunting is wrong, and poaching is
almost the same thing, but it's
illegal and you can't wipe out whole
species.

A website created by
the county government in Gavleborg
Sweden, that was called Wolfweb was
shut down.

This is because the site has caught
attention of poachers who was wanting
to track down a Wolf that migrated
from Finland, along with his pups.

All were radio collared unfortunately
in December.

Annica Forsberg, predatory animal handler
of the county government, said it was
originally for hunters.

Great...

Luckily no casulties have been reported.

This is a reminder that you never give
an inch toward a corrupt cause, for people
will take a yard if so inclined.

And this is the ongoing problem in Sweden.
The support for hunting of Wolves and
the destruction of Wolves in livestock issues.

WOLF NEWS 1/20/2009

Obama has taken public office.

And we still have many issues
to tackle.

Thus we must immediately act
to reach him, Vice President
Joe Biden, and Secretary of the
Interior Ken Salazar, to take
action on quite a few issues.

1) We need them to help reverse
the decision to delist the Wolf
in the United States.

The Wolves will now be subjected,
save for Wyoming, to hunting, as
well being slaughtered more than
ever in preventable livestock issues.

David Mech (mechx002@umn.edu) who created the International
Wolf Center (with other biologists),
has supported the hunting of Wolves
in the past and supports the delisting.
This is despite knowing the harm that
will come to Wolves.

http://www.heartofthewolf.org/ESA2.html
http://sentinelsource.com/articles/2009/01/19/features/environment/free/id_339671.txt

He also supports the destruction of Wolves
in livestock issues as detailed in
his book, Wolves: Behavior, Ecology, and Conservation.

Issues that can be prevented through
the use of Non-Lethal Methods and
PF Ranching.

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

Methods that to this day, many like
agencies in the U.S. and around the
world fail to use successfully and implement,
which causes fear, war, and bloodshed.

2) Another case of why hunting is wrong
and the result of hunting of Wolves is
aerial hunts in Alaska. Hunting of Wolves
has been legal in Alaska also for many
years, to 'protect' moose and caribou.

This is a lie by those in the hunting
industry to get their sadistic kicks
out of hunting Wolves.

Every year more than a hundred Wolves
are slaughtered by staff in the government.

And by others. Such as Coke Wallace
who hunts them, even though private
hunting of them is illegal and claims
it is legal. Aerial hunting is illegal
and isn't enforced.

Coke Wallace is a part of hunting Wolves
in Denali National Park as a part of a
three part series by Backpacker.com

http://www.backpacker.com/dogs_of_war_the_battle_over_denalis_toklat_wolf_pack/nature/12719

http://www.backpacker.com/dogs_of_war_part_3_witness_a_wolf_skinning/videos/59

Due to graphic content and the skinning of a Wolf,
parental discretion is advised. Ironic that the site
for that part says that, yet they I am sure like
most hunters, want kids to hunt too.

Here is what you can do to help with all of this.

A) First contact the USFWS and sue in opposition
to the delisting of Wolves in the U.S.

Sue the USFWS if you can and the Department
of the Interior ASAP to halt this as well.
Although environmentalists are waiting til
next Wed. We don't have time to let Wolf
lives swing in the wind like they did before.

Ask for them (Obama, Biden) to support Native Americans
and Gays/Bi-Sexual/Trangenders

as well.

C) Contact Coke Wallace

http://www.midnightsunsafaris.com/cokewallacebio.html

Here is some new issues with Sweden.

1) One issue was involving a livestock
issue that once again could have been
prevented through NLM's and PF Ranching.

Five animals attacked; three dead,
one injured and one missing.

This all could have been prevented if
these methods were used.

http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5344

2) The Wildlife Center in Grimsö
makes vests to protect hunting Dogs.
Which seems to be working.

However we have a better solution.

No hunting. Don't hunt, and don't
bring your hunting Dogs out to
hunt and no one gets hurt.

That way everybody wins.

http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5346

In the meantime contact the Swedish
Government about the value of
Non-Lethal Methods and PF Ranching.

Especially the Natural Resources
Board since they let this happen
again. Non-Lethal Methods can
prevent these issues but the NRB
doesn't do this.

WOLF NEWS 1/15/2009

"Judgment Day. The end of the world." -- John Connor, Terminator 3

For the Wolf it is.

As of January 14, 2009,
the Wolves have been delisted
once again from the Endangered
Species Act.

http://www.mtexpress.com/vu_breaking_story.php?bid=6559

This makes Wolves in the Great
Lakes (Michigan, Minnesota, Wyoming)
and in Idaho and Montana, open to
attack by more than just livestock
issues.

The USFWS doesn't like the Wyoming
Plan of having Wolves able to be
shot in most of the state.

and WOLF NEWS AND WOLF MEDIA 1/10/2009

Hunters are already waiting sadistically
to prove their masculinity by having a
dead Wolf in their living room.

Thanks to the USFWS this will happen
just like in Canada.

Beware, it is not for the faint of heart.
Parental discretion is advice.

http://www.versuscountry.com/itemdetail.aspx?id=2643&sectionType=-1#

The 'hunt' was done by Mike Rogers

http://www.versuscountry.com/hostpage.aspx?hid=30

Ed Bangs, a man who has many gallons of
Wolf blood on his hands for the slaughter
of many over the 'reintroduction' of Wolves,
says that the decision is legal and that
is why they did it. That is because he
believes that Wolves are legally recovered.

http://www.idahostatesman.com/102/story/633555.html

Never mind the fact that they used to live
all over the world.

And Wolves have and still will be slaughtered
in livestock issues that could be prevented
through Non-Lethal Methods and PF Ranching.

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

We don't have much time to counterattack.

A) First contact President-Elect Obama about
this issue.

Obama wants to unite the country. Well we need
to do that by showing them that there has been
a large population that is united for Wolf Rights
and their protection. Also educate him about
Non-Lethal Methods and PF Ranching.

http://change.gov/page/s/yourvision

B) Contact Ken Salazar too. Since he is the next
in line for Secretary of the Interior we
need to convince him to reverse this horrid
decision.

http://salazar.senate.gov/contact/email.cfm

C) Sue the USFWS if you can and the Department
of the Interior ASAP to halt this as well.
Although environmentalists are waiting til
next Wed. We don't have time to let Wolf
lives swing in the wind like they did before.

2) Thank Senators Jon Tester (D-Wyo), John Barraso (R-Wyo),
Senator Max Baucus (D-Montana) and Senator Mike Crapo, (R-Idaho)
for passing the Wolf Kill Bill.

No it isn't designed
to kill Wolves.

It is designed for not just measly
compensation practices, but it will allow federal grants
to use what practices we have been writing and educating
about for years.

http://www.montanasnewsstation.com/Global/story.asp?S=9681324&nav=menu227_2

The idea of improved fencing, ranching
practices and the use of guard dogs (we learned about guard
dogs thanks to Cheetah Conservation Fund -- cheetah.org).

It's formal name is: Wolf Livestock Loss Mitigation Act

This won't guarantee full protection for Wolves
in livestock issues since that is in the hands
of the USFWS in addition
to the Wyoming Game and Fish who will still
slaughter Wolves. And the Montana FWP, Montana
Wildlife Services and USFWS if Wolves are relisted
will still slaughter Wolves in livestock issues.

This at least is a start in the right direction. But
ultimately the goal is no murder in livestock issues.
If anything, this shows the growing numbers that
people are getting the truth about these methods.
And that they work and that more people are listening
despite those who want to use murder and mayhem
instead and lie about their effectiveness, like the
USFWS, the DNR's, Fish and Games, the FWP's, Wildlife
Services, for example.

Here is the contact for these men. Also let them
know that this proves that the 'wildlife' agencies
we listed in the last paragraph have no business in
the slaughter of Wolves in livestock issues.

3) The hunters who were hunting a Wolf
in Herrestad Sweden have run out of time
to hunt that Wolf. Which is good news.

If they want to hunt it again, they will
have to file an extension with the Natural
Resources Agency.

We will let you know if these hunters try
it again.

WOLF AND WOLF-DOG NEWS 1/14/2008

Here is the latest Wolf News.

First check out a site for one
of our newest members. Note
the Dogs in the pics are huskies.

It is dedicated to Wolves, Wolf-Dogs
of note like Balto and other media
and subjects.

It is in the Swedish language, but
still visit and navigate and pass the

1) Montana FWP on last Saturday
shot to death the other
Wolf in Reed Point that they
were responsible in the deaths
of many livestock.

http://www.missoulian.com/articles/2009/01/10/bnews/br20.txt

Montana FWP SHOULD have used
Non-Lethal Methods and PF Ranching.
But they didn't, and after a four
month search they shot to death this
Wolf as well.

Defenders of Wildlife was of course
no help since they rely on the failed
concept of compensation.

This is what one of their staff said.

“It’s unfortunate this particular rancher was getting hit.
Hopefully in the future we can find strategies to protect
his livestock.” -- said Mike Leahy of Defenders of Wildlife

http://www.defenders.org/about_us/staff/michael_t._leahy.php

It is unfortunate, but why didn't THEY
help make sure these methods were done
RIGHT and helped to prevent both parties
from suffering then. It seems that they
stood by and let it happen too.

Of course they were one of the parties
that let 106 Wolves die awhile back
when Wolves were briefly delisted.

See more here:

http://www.boiseweekly.com/gyrobase/Content?oid=oid%3A114727
http://www.heartofthewolf.org/WhatWillWork.txt

And although the rancher claimed
that he used them with no avail,
our information says that it works
and we have proof.

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

And although the Wolf is back on the ESA
temporarily, it is forgotten that the
Wolf is not protected in livestock issue.
Such is the double standard of 'protection'.

Contact the Montana FWP and Government
Officials as well as media about this.

Contact Montana FWP and Wildlife
Services in opposition to this
and sue if possible.

http://fwp.mt.gov/wildthings/wolf/contact.html

http://www.heartofthewolf.org/MediaGovernmentContacts.htm

2) Richard Garrett, a lobbyist for the Wyoming
Outdoor Council approves a bill that would change
the definition of Trophy Game for the Wolf in
Wyoming if Wolves were delisted. Trophy Game
would then make it so Wolves would be
subjected to hunting that is regulated.

This is different than the original plan to have
Wolves declared as Trophy Game status in the
Northwestern part of the state where they
couldn't be shot on sight. So it would increase
the hunting of Wolves. And Wolves would be shot
to death more in livestock issues.

Yet he disapproves of another bill that would classify
Wolves in most of the state as Game, which would
allow them to be shot on sight.

The fate of the Wolf is unknown right now. Hopefully
the USFWS still will not have a chance to delist
them before Obama takes office and even then we
have to keep fighting to keep them delisted.

Here is how.

3) USFWS in the Mexican Gray Wolf
'Recovery' Program have asked
people to comment on their assessment
that after 30 years the program
finally needs an 'update'.

Email your comments to:
mexwolfdca@fws.gov
John_Slown@fws.gov

Here is where the draft assessment can
be read.

http://www.fws.gov/southwest/es/Documents/R2ES/Mexican_Wolf_Conservation_Assessment_DRAFT.pdf

The current
program is a failure and we have little
confidence in the new one.
Any and all programs are being designed
for a capped population and management.
Wolves being shot in livestock issues
as well as them being hunted later on if
the USFWS isn't sued in court.

Go through and make your comments about
this to the USFWS before March 10th.

http://www.newswest9.com/Global/story.asp?S=9668239&nav=menu505_2

4) The USFWS decided to give thee Red
Wolves from the Fossil Rim Wildlife
Center in Glen Rose, Texas
that they 'own' to The Texas
Zoo to promote them in programs to
help rebuild their population.

Humans of course being the leading cause of
the suffering the Red Wolf has led to
only 307 Red Wolves being alive with most
being captivity (200!).

These Wolves are as the article says
'replacing' the two Red Wolves they used
to have. One which was 'shipped' to
the Museum of Life and Science in North
Carolina which the male died of natural causes.

http://www.victoriaadvocate.com/news/local/story/390003.html

5) You can read a story about professional explorer Jim McNeill
and how he traveled to Ellesmere Island with a BBC Natural History Unit crew,
to take footage of the elusive Arctic wolf on camera.

It's odd he says pitting wits against Nature. It's
not about being against Nature, but being a part of it
by learning about it.

WOLF NEWS AND WOLF MEDIA 1/10/2009

1) Wolves are still being threatened
of delisting. Hunters are coming
out now with material that promotes
delisting so they can slaughter them.

One such place is Cabela's Outfitter
Journal.

Februrary 2009, pgs 48, 50-52.

They have an article in there called
The Great Wolf Debate by Mark Kayser.
He already wants a Wolf rug in his
den.

He briefly goes over the so-called
end of the 'recovery' of the Wolf
in the Northern Rockies and in other
states.

He talks about how in Wyoming hunters
didn't mess around last year when
hunters slaughtered many Wolves in
most of the state.

He lists tips on hunting Wolves
as well.

Kayser thinks that maybe someday
courts will 'return' to reality
and restore 'game' management to
the states and so they
can put rugs in front
of the the fireplace.

Horrific implications to say the
least.

We tried going to the website
for the magazine but it is gone.
The listing for it cannot be
found on search engines either.

Although Mark Kayser can be found
on the Versus website. You can
see the terrible page yourself.

http://www.versuscountry.com/hostpage.aspx?hid=28

We did find places you can post your
comments on his unethical practices.

http://www.versuscountry.com/itemdetail.aspx?id=333

http://xtremehuntstv.com/blog/

Versus unfortunately supports this unethical
practice of hunting and even has a Wolf hunt
on their website.

Beware, it is not for the faint of heart.
Parental discretion is advice.

Hunters last Friday were not able

WOLF AND WOLF-DOG NEWS 1/8/2009

Here is the latest in Wolf and
Wolf-Dog news.

1) As we knew, the Montana FWP
and Montana Wildlife Services
lied about their claims of
using herders and Livestock
Dogs properly. This lead to the
deaths of livestock and their
murder of one Wolf and pursuit
of another to murder..

http://www.montanasnewsstation.com/Global/story.asp?S=9620893&nav=menu227_2

An article recently reported
that although a couple of guard
dogs had minor injuries, it
was nothing major and they
were sent back to work.

No livestock were killed this
time. No Livestock Dogs were
killed. Nothing went wrong,
as we have proved time and
time again.

But yet John Steuber of Billings, state director of Wildlife Services
continues to lie saying that Non-Lethal
Methods have been failing. And Montana FWP
continues to support and propagate the lies.

If used right Non-Lethal Methods
and PF Ranching work as this recent
case despite denials of the WS.

Does this
mean that they are calling off
their hunt for the Wolf in Reedpoint?

Nope.

They still want the Wolf dead.

http://www.billingsgazette.net/articles/2009/01/07/news/state/68-guarddogs.txt

This has to stop.

They need to educate the public
about the need for these methods.
And implemented and enforced.

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

Merely compensation tactics like
those used by Defenders of Wildlife
don't do the trick on this one.

PLEASE HELP TODAY!

A) Help donate to our cause in order
to promote Wolf rights and co-existence
between Humans and Wolves. If one uses
the recession as an excuse to not help,
then those who fear and hate the Wolves
have won. Because as Tye Cumins believes,
the recession proves that Humans are more
important than Wolves, rather than both
being important.

B) Contact Montana FWP and Wildlife
Services in opposition to this
and sue if possible.

E) Non-Lethal Methods and PF Ranching do work as we have
proven. It's just a smear campaign by Government Officials
in these agencies and the media.

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

2) Iberian Wolves are threatened in Spain.

This alert came to us from Earle
Bingley of Canadian Voice for
Animals.

www.canadianvoiceforanimals.org

A management plan was almost
approved by the Regional Spanish
Parliament of Castile and
Leon, which would have included
hunting of Wolves in this region.

In otherwords the reasoning
is to reduce livestock issues.
and to prevent poaching.

This goes against the legislation
already set by the European
Union to protect Wolves.

As we already know the destruction
of Wolves in livestock issues is
morally wrong. It is a hideously
ineffective practice because livestock issues
will continue where the Wolves
are slaughtered where the incidents
occur.

Poaching won't stop because once
this government starts slaughtering
Wolves it will be just like in the
U.S., where those who hate them
soon want to hunt them too.

Here is the original alert from
the source that Bingley gave to us.

**This withdrawal of signatures(companies) is to demonstrate
our rejection to the near(next) approval
on the part of the Regional Spanish Parliament of Castile and León
of the Plan of Conservation and Management of the Iberian Wolf in Castile
and León because the above mentioned plan considers to the hunt the
priority tool of management for a key species(kind) in the ecosystems and of
Community Interest (Board(Directive) 1992/43/CEE), since it is the wolf.

In addition, the above mentioned plan breaks the legislation of the European
Union on having allowed the apprehension of copies(specimens) to the south of
the Douro, the hunting utilization increases in the natural protected spaces
included in the Network(Net) Nature 2000 (that they suppose 23 per cent of
the regional surface) and in places where the socioeconomic conflict by hurts
(damages) to the cattle is reduced (central regions of Castile and León),

It(He,She) underestimates the illegal mortality (only 10 denunciations
exist for poaching wolf from 1993), and lacks aims(lenses) cuantificables
to allow to connect the wolfish population of Castile and León with the
seriously threatened ones with the peninsular south (as it(he,she)
indicates the Strategy for the Conservation and Management of the Wolf
in Spain, approved in 2005).

How is this aim(lens) going to be achieved if the number of wolves cazables
in Castile and León is going to be quadrupled?. This Plan claims that
increasing the legal hunt one is going to reduce the poaching, but this
type of assumption does not seem to be based on any type of conclusive
evidence and can turn out to be counter-productive.**

Thanks to the http://www.elmundo.es/traductor site for translation.

A) You can sign the petition help stop this. We also have contacts for the
Parliament of Castile aka Castilla and Leon.

Be sure to include the Non-Lethal Methods link to and
talk about the information there. Hunting
only leads to violence and death which
will not stop. It will create fear and hate
of the Wolf and that will intensify that reality
even more.

It will be no different than what is happening
in the U.S. right now with the chaos in Wolf programs.
This is because of NLM's not being used as the means
to prevent livestock issues. And Wolves not being
respected like fellow man and woman.

It will lead to plans like in Alaska every year
where culling is done where more than 100 Wolves
on average are gunned down.

And like in Sweden where culls are being proposed
and hunts are happening because hunting Dogs are killed
by Wolves. This is because hunters want to continue their
sadistic sport and thus die because of their owners
irresponsibility of bringing them out on Wolf territory
and not thinking about the consequences of that.

Would you go into a stranger's house uninvited and
expect to do whatever you wanted without your child
that you took along to not get killed? Or yourself for
that matter?

NO!

To foster or adopt contact; Jayne at email: thegreywolf@tds.net

She shows no aggression, but a typical strong desire to escape.
We would like to get her into a rescue that specializes in the
needs of a wolf or hybrid. We were told by the owner that she
is a wolf/malamute cross, but we were not provided with any paperwork.

To foster or adopt contact; Jayne at email: thegreywolf@tds.net

She appears to have a high percentage of wolf.
The owner briefly had her in the house as a pup,
then transferred her to an outdoor kennel.

She is thinner than I believe she should be,
possibly due to improper hybrid nutrition.

She is not in physical danger here at the shelter to be considered an
emergency; however, we are very concerned about her emotional and
mental well-being as she is being confined to one of our backholding
kennels (which are even smaller than our permanent kennels).

Any assistance you can provide will be much appreciated.
Thank you for all you do for these magnificent creatures.

If interested in adopting Kiera Rose you will need to have a pen
at least 32' x 32' of 9ga fencing, prefer 6ga fencing, with dig
wire and at least lean-ins, prefer hotwire top and bottom.

This girl is an escape artist until she settles in at least and maybe even then.

Kiera Rose was raised inside the house and housebroken, however,
it has been several months she was banned to the outside pen.

A refresher course will be necessary. She will be spayed before adoption.

2) Everyone has seen us post asking for donations to help the Colorado wolfdogs
be saved and get to their new homes.

Maybe the newsletter below will help you understand how far we have
come and how far we have to go:

Timber's Pack Rescue

For a number of years a woman in Colorado has been quietly rescuing wolfdogs
that many felt were not adoptable due to poor socialization and shyness.

Each animal that came to Timber's Pack was provided with a loving home.

Just days prior to Christmas, Indigo Mountain received an urgent email asking for help.
The wolfdogs owner was in a dire situation. She said she had reached the most
dreadful point in her life. Her husband had left her with a young baby, she had no money,
and was on the verge of loosing everything. We were given a deadline of December
28th to find homes for 10 wolfdogs and one Newfoundland.

Throughout 2008 we have seen an increase in surrenders of all sorts of animals.
As people have to choose what bills they can pay many animals are being abandoned or
surrendered to shelters and sanctuaries. Some simply cannot afford food for their animals.
Some are loosing their homes or downsizing from the rural home to an apartment in the city.

Breeders are unloading their surplus, and in many cases shutting down the kennels.
At the same time rescuers are having more difficulties finding responsible, qualified
homes and donations are way down.

So when we received the email we weren't sure what we could do. December in Colorado
means harsh weather, frozen ground and great difficulty constructing new habitats.

We are far from immune to the slumping economy and have had to turn away a number of
animals until we see a rebound in donations to help pay for food, construction and medical expenses.

We began working with rescuers and sanctuaries across the country and by the deadline
we were successful in finding approved homes for everyone. We just had to figure out
how to get them to their new homes. Six of them have found refuge in TN and NC, while
the others are being placed in CO and NM. The logistics of transporting 6 large,
skittish wolfdogs halfway across the country in such a short time gave us all gray hair,
but everything fell into place just before the New Year.

But we need your help to pull off this rescue.
A transporter has generously offered his services to transport 6 from CO to TN for a
greatly reduced rate, but we are a long way from his fee. We must also cover the costs
to get some of them from TN on to NC. Two animals must be transported to NM once their
new home is ready.

All totalled our budget for this rescue is just under $4,000 including the
transportation costs, crates, veterinary services, health certificates, drugs,
vaccine charges and food while in foster care.

We have received a number of cash donations and in-kind donations that have
brought us close to the total budget. We are now just $1,000 short of the total budget.

Please help us help the animals.
You tax-deductible donation can be made via Google Checkout on-line at
http://indigomtn.org/html/timberspackrescue.html, or
mailed to the sanctuary at P.O. Box 208 Lake George, CO 80827.

If you would like to make a Visa or Mastercard donation you can phone us at 719-748-5550
and we will process the donation over the phone.

WOLF AND WOLF-NEWS 1/6/2009

1) The Reedpoint disaster
that we told you about
continues.

Ranchers there are continuing
to fear and hate the Wolf
there.

This is despite the
claims that Montana FWP
uses Non-Lethal Methods
and PF Ranching. IF they
actually did so, these
problems wouldn't happen.

One Wolf has been murdered
already, and the search
for another one continues.

The search for the Wolf
that the Montana FWP wants
dead is ongoing since
there are high wind conditions.

It doesn't help that the
Montana's News Station
in Montana, a part of CBS,
refers to this Wolf as
the "Big, Bad, Wolf."

This is what fear, hatred,
and not doing one's job
gets the Wolf. Fear, hatred
of it, and death of it.

Even one of the rancher's
said this, which is scary.

"And as much trouble as the government
is in financially right now and everyone
is in trouble financially, I can't believe
the money they're putting into these wolves.
I guess the wolves have more rights than my
sheep do." -- Reedpoint rancher Tye Cumins

http://www.montanasnewsstation.com/Global/story.asp?S=9620893&nav=menu227_2

We are doing some of our part
by making these alerts. But
the reason we are doing our
campaign which involves
joining with music artists
and promoting their music,
is to promote and educate
about the truth on this issue.

http://www.heartofthewolf.org/WolfMusic.htm

This is because government
agencies and as in this case,
the media has failed to promote
accurately the crime that is
being perpetuated against Wolves
and Humans.

People can live with Wolves without
slaughtering them in livestock issues.

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

PLEASE HELP TODAY!

A) Help donate to our cause in order
to promote Wolf rights and co-existence
between Humans and Wolves. If one uses
the recession as an excuse to not help,
then those who fear and hate the Wolves
have won. Because as Tye Cumins believes,
the recession proves that Humans are more
important than Wolves, rather than both
being important.

B) Contact Montana FWP and Wildlife
Services in opposition to this
and sue if possible.

USDA Wildlife Services

C) Contact Montana Government Officials in opposition to this.

D) Please contact your media and officials about these issues.
http://www.heartofthewolf.org/MediaGovernmentContacts.htm

E) Non-Lethal Methods and PF Ranching do work as we have
proven. It's just a smear campaign by Government Officials
in these agencies and the media.

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

F) Contact the News station that reported
this and propagated the fear of Wolves.
Humans can live with Wolves peacefully
up there by using Non-Lethal Methods and
Predator Friendly Ranching Practices.

http://www.montanasnewsstation.com/Global/story.asp?S=1785564&nav=menu227_2_2_8

2) Sweden still has alot of activity.

The hunt of a Wolf in Herrestad aka Herrestadsreviret has been
delayed because there is no snow as of yet.

The hunt was called because 5 hunting Dogs
were killed by this Wolf. Which if you don't
want your Dog killed on hunting trips, you
shouldn't be hunting. Sport hunting is something
we are against.

The Natural Resources agency approved it
and the county government is working with the
hunters to prepare for the hunt when
it snows.

http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5309

That gives us some more time to oppose this.

Oppose this now!

The situation for Wolves as well as Lynx, and Bear
gets worse as two politicians from Sweden
want them hunted.

Minister for Higher Education and Research, Ministry of Education and Research,
wants to 'teach' Wolves by slaughtering them
to not come into Human settlements and not
attack livestock.

http://www.sweden.gov.se/sb/d/7522

This is not education, this is slaughter, supported once again
by high levels of power and it needs to stop.

Especially since sport hunting is unethical, and using
Non-Lethal Methods and PF Ranching need to be used
in livestock issues, to prevent them. And educating the
public about this is important.

And maybe population control can be used with people and
not colonizing everywhere can also help prevent animals
from coming into where Humans live there since Sweden
has a population of over 9 million people.

WOLF-DOG NEWS 1/6/3009

1) Okl *WOLFDOG STAR* BEAUTY! *PLSE HELP HER!* REPOST!

Freedom's Song Wolf Rescue

NE Okla - wolfdog Star no longer wanted due to marriage

Star is a beautiful 6-8 year old female wolf/malamute mix whose
world has been turned upside down. Her owner recently married,
and his new wife did not want Star as she already had two dogs.
The owner's parents are trying to care for her but are having
major containment challenges. They live where wolfdogs are illegal,
so this is urgent as Star is tearing up the cedar fence and leaving the yard

- sometimes for several days at a time - then returns.

Her whole world has been turned upside down, and now she's at
risk of being picked up by animal control...

UPDATE 8/16

An electric fence has been put up to help keep Star in the yard. B
ut there still is the issue of her howling because her 'dad' is gone.
So this is still urgent, as she is in an illegal community.

I wish I could say that things
have started already with
a positive note for the Wolf,
but tragedy is already in the
works for them.

Not unlike the chaos in the
Middle East with Gaza and Israel.

1) News reports in Montana say
that at Reed Point more livestock
have been killed despite efforts
to remove Wolves from the area.

Right. As we reported 12/4/2008
the Montana FWP has murdered one
Wolf and had plans to take down
another.

A rancher has been given a permit
to slaughter one Wolf. The Montana
Wildlife Services and the Rancher
had tried to find the other
Wolf yestrday but wasn't able
to thank goodness.

Now to bring in the new year
they want to slaughter more Wolves.
And the newspaper that reported
this classified the Wolves as
offenders, like they were criminals.

2) A 'controlled' hunt has begun of a Wolf
December 30th of last year.

40 hunters were chosen to murder the Wolf
for killing several hunting Dogs. Which
if hunters didn't hunt and respected the
Wolf's land, this wouldn't have happened.

Monday the 29th, the county government of
Vastra Gotaland and the hunters had a meeting
in Uddevalla to discuss how to implement
their plans.

They will be carried out in the Herrestad
Mountains which is connected to Uddevala,
Fargelanda and Munkedal. The hunters
have 14 days to slaughter this Wolf.

The leader of this horrific group has
been chosen by the County government.
4 representatives have also been chosen
below that leader to represent the areas
represented.

They are waiting for snow to slaughter the
Wolf in a hunt that is carried out in a
'good way'. Which any hunt, is not a good
way.

Don't want your Dog killed don't hunt.
Simple solution. Hunters shouldn't blame
and slaughter the Wolf because of their
sadistic 'sport' and those who suffer
because of it.

3) The Predatory Animal Society as well as Animal
Protection Sweden doesn't like the fact that the
Swedish Hunters League wanted to shoot to death
18 Wolves in six regions to 'reduce' the Wolf
population in Sweden.

They sent a letter to the Swedish Government and
the Natural Resources Committee saying that the
Hunters League is attempting to say that they
are representing all residents in the Wolf Regions.

Obviously this is a scheme by hunters who hate
Wolves and see them as competition and in the way of their
sadistic sport.

http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5296

We are against culling of Wolves and how many
people live in Sweden right now on average?

Here we go again on this one.

9,234,209 as of 2008

And there is only about 200 Wolves in Sweden.

This is absolutely ridiculous.

Committee about this above.

opposition to this.

4) The Middle East is rife
with violence and devastation
as you have no doubt seen
on the news. Well another
creature is surprisingly
also a victim of violence
out there.

The Wolf.



In Yanbu, Wolves are slaughtered
and hung up in lynch trees as
a warning to Wolves that this
would happen to them if they
attacked livestock.

The news report says that hunting
of Wolves is 'popular sport'
in Saudi Arabia and that it is
'justified' since they are hard
to kill.

To get an idea of the sadism
involved, here are some quotes
from some of the hunters in the
article.

“This is a famous tree, which is
locally known as the Lynch Tree.
I’ve killed six wolves and hung them
on the tree over the past few years ...
people who hunt wolves bring them to
this tree and hang them here.
The bodies stay here until they decompose
and fall off or someone with a fresh
kill takes one down to hang a new one. --
Hameed Al-Sulami

The trend is horrific as people travel
long distances to see this tree where
the dead Wolves are hung.

Some even justify it in 'self-defense'.

"However, I condemn the random killing of wolves.
They’re an important element of the country’s wildlife.
I’ve killed six wolves in total,
but all of them were in self-defense.” -- Al-Juhani

Doesn't matter. Murder is murder.

'Ali Al-Bugaili, a hunter, said hunting wolves is something that he enjoys.'

"It’s a brilliant sport. Most often wolf hunting takes place at
night because wolves come out at night, as it’s a perfect time not to be
seen by farmers, shepherds and their prey. Shepherds, on the other hand,
are ready with loaded weapons waiting for the unexpected,” he said.

“Wolves are smart creatures and they can sense human beings easily.
They smell us from a distance. Hunting wolves after overcoming
these obstacles is very difficult. I can’t describe the joy I feel
when I kill one,” he added.

Fear and hatred lead to violence and death.
And livestock issues are preventable through
Non-Lethal Methods and PF Ranching which we
need to bring to the Saudi Arabian Government's
attention. This is so they can start to educate these
people so the Wolf will not be the target of
shepherds and ranchers who want them dead.

government which is called the Royal Commission
for Yanbu.

Tell them about Non-Lethal Methods and
PF Ranching. They need to educate, implement
and enforce these methods.

B) Also contact the National Commission for
Wildlife Conservation and Development about this
as well and the article above.

http://www.ncwcd.gov.sa/English/contactus.aspx

5) Two boys in Surahammar, Sweden found on
Monday a Wolf that was frozen to
death in the Gryten lake near
Lisjo.

The police helped recover the
Wolf's body.

The Wolf is going to be
examined by the National
Vetrinary Medicine
institute in Uppsala.

http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5298

Since that news report
it has been reported that
the male Wolf may have
had a pack. The Wolf
may be two years old.

http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5302

6) An effort in Britain
to rewild it, which is
the concept of turning back
the clock of thousands
of years of human destruction
of Nature, has been hatched
recently.

This week the People’s Trust for Endangered Species,
which currently supports the
reintroduction of beaver to Scotland,
will suggest northern Britain could support about 450 lynx.

It may be in the near future that the Wolves
may be on the list too. Which the Wolf in
Britain was wiped out by the 1500's.

Next year Natural England, who is the government's
conservation watchdog, will ask the board to make
rewilding an official policy for protecting
Britain's natural heritage.

If this movement gains alot of support, it may
very well become a reality, unlike Scotland where
Paul Lister has been opposed by many to reintroduce
Beaver, Brown Bears, Lynx, and Wolves.

WOLF NEWS AND WOLF DOG NEWS 12/26/2008

1) Recently the USFWS wanted to
remove Wolves from the Endangered
Species list in the Great Lakes.

They are trying new attempts
to delist them. This is by
'addressing concerns in the
lawsuit'. That of course means
the lawsuit to restore their status which
happened.

The USFWS is considering options
since the Fed courts do not want
to delist them apparently as
of this time.

http://www.wisconsinagconnection.com/story-state.php?Id=1540&yr=2008

Be watchful folks, despite Borders
Bookstore calendar that claims that
government agencies recognize the
need for Wolves and are reintroducing them,
this is hardly the case.

http://www.borders.com/online/store/CustomerServiceView_ContactUsContent

Contact Judge Friedman of what is going on here and
ask him to oppose the delisting of Wolves
in the Great Lakes once again.

http://www.dcd.uscourts.gov/friedman-bio.html

Contact Government officials in the Great Lakes
States to ask them to oppose the 2nd attempt
of delisting.

2) Recently the USFWS considered a petition
brought to them by WildEarth Guardians
to have Wolves introduced into different parts
of Colorado.

http://www.summitdaily.com/article/20081225/NEWS/812259966/1078&ParentProfile=1055&title=Where%20the%20wolves%20could%20roam

Of course it was no surprised that they
decided to reject it.

http://www.summitdaily.com/article/20081225/NEWS/812259968/1078&ParentProfile=1055&title=Feds%20reject%20wolf%20petition%3B%20conservation%20groups%20threaten%20lawsuit%20to%20force%20issue

They claim that they satisfied the goals (of course not)
of reintroduction of Wolves in the Northern
Rockies and summarily denied the petition.

It may be possible that they could be sued.

That wouldn't be so bad actually. The USFWS
has in the past slaughtered so many Wolves
in preventable livestock issues, and lied
to the public and to ranchers about Non-Lethal
Methods. They still do.

They also want to delist Wolves in the U.S.,
saying that their unwanted job is done. Yet
Wolves use to live all over the U.S. and all
over the world.

3) The USFWS has been involved in other
corruption and scandals too.

What does the Chinese Government and the USFWS
have in common?

Both change their representatives.

In the Bejing Olympics the Chinese Government
at the last minute had a girl lip-sing their
national anthem at the Olympics because they
felt their original singer wasn't as cute.

The USFWS decided to do something similar
with their program regarding their poster
for the Mexican Gray Wolf Recovery Program
and on the Mexican Gray Wolf website.

The Center for Biological Diversity and
15 other groups, it is unclear who they
are, maybe the same ones who supported
the destruction of 106 Wolves as of late..
to take the poster down. This is because
the name (if you cant to call it that)
is called No. 511.

This is because 511 died awhile ago in
FWS captivity from stress and overheating
in 2005. The poster and picture are of
a different Wolf.

Sounds like the Chinese Government huh?

The CBD sent a letter to director to
USFWS director Dale Hall, which we are
sure this is going to be denied.
The CBD also wants a new USFWS since all
they do is slaughter Wolves, citing the
wandering outside of designated areas
and the 3 strikes rule regarding the
execution Wolves in livestock issues.

The CBD hopes things will change when
Obama takes office. Will that happen?

http://www.sltrib.com/outdoors/ci_11296748

With appointments like Ken Salazar for
Secretary for the Interior who supported
pesticides for the destruction of Wolves
in livestock issues, and Rick Warren
to swear in Obama who is against Gay Marriage,
will this happen?

Or will this not be change and more of the
same which Obama was claiming to fight against?

4) Apparently another livestock
issue occurred in Montana's Reed Point
last week. Instead of using NLM's and
PF Ranching to deal with the issue,
the Montana FWP will extend a murder
permit to Feb. 1.

Another rancher in the area who lost
sheep because of the Montana FWP holds
a permit that will expire on Wed.
We think this may be next week since the
article was published on December 25th.

The article claims that herders
and guard dogs were used but efforts
failed. Yeah, right. Our evidence
shows otherwise that those methods work.

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

The issue started in Reed Point in
September when the 'wildlife managers'
believed that two Wolves were responsible.

In November Wildlife Services murdered one
Wolf but couldn't find the second Wolf.

Wildlife Services is going to look for the
second Wolf.

5) Sweden has been busy lately with Wolf issues
as well.

A) Dals-Ed commune in Vastra Gotaland got
permission to put up four cameras to document
Lynx and Wolf behavior by attacked prey animals.

These cameras will be designed to film in the
light and in the dark, as well as when there
is snow.

http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5291

B) The Natural Resources committee has
been approving left and right the hunts
for Wolves in relation to hunting dog
issues.

http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5058
http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5260

They approved the hunt of a Wolf in the
Herrestad region.

This is because a Wolf ate a hunting Dog that
belonged to a Moose Hunter.

This has to stop. Hunting is not a sport.
If people were not hunting, Wolves wouldn't
be eating Dogs. This is a Human problem.
Period.

And the Natural Resources Committee must be stopped.

This is bad because even a minister in the
Swedish Government, 'Environmental' Minister Andreas Carlgren (c)
wants Wolves hunted.

http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5269

Government sponsored hunts are just as bad.
This has to end as well.

A) Contact the Natural Resources Committee
in Sweden in opposition to these horrible
plans.

6) China forestry workers captured a Wolf that was
near the Great Wall of China. They speculated that
the Wolf left it's pack to search for food.

Residents near the Wall were fearful of it and
reported it.

The Wolf is currently healthy and is currently in
captivity and it is supposed
going to be released in a remote area. Though
when it's release will be is unknown.

20 Wolves were reported in 2000 in the mountains
near Beijing.

Zengnian Wang, deputy chief of Beijing Wildlife
Protection Association, said that Wolves disappeared
from Beijing in the 1950s, but farmers
claimed they did see Wolves.

Luckily the Wolf was not killed and we hope to see
it released soon in good health.

http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2008-12/25/content_10557558.htm

7) A Wolf was collared (which we
are against) in the Rendalen commune
in Norway. The residents there
are protesting the Wolf's presence
along with his family.

http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5282

Last summer this Wolf and the pack
which he co-leads, the Osdal Pack,
had pups, which one was found dead
not long after two cottage owners
filmed it.

It is unclear if the cottage owners
murdered them or not by the article.

Helicopters and people on the ground
collared the Wolf with a GPS collar in
Flendal on the orders of the Natural
Resource's group there.

They are planning to investigate where
these Wolves are. And they want to decide
the fate of these Wolves through management
by making goals.

Whether this will benefit Wolves or not
is unclear.

EMERGENCY!!! WOLF AND WOLF-DOG NEWS 12/22/2008!!!

First off we are asking those who
support Wolves and Heart of the Wolf
Organization to donate to our group
by buying the CD Journeys of the Wolf
by the talented Christine Campbell.

http://www.heartofthewolf.org/WolfMusic.htm

To listen to some of the tracks go here:
http://www.myspace.com/heartofthawolf

These CDs were given to us by the
generous artist, and all proceeds
currently go to our group. It will
fund our various activities, from
outreach, to our projects we are
developing for the future.

1) An emergency meeting
was called in Wyoming recently.

Last Wed. night the Wyoming
Game and Fish Department
decided to tweak regulations
to satisfy regulations to
make it so the USFWS would
be fine with delisting Wolves.

The USFWS may possibly decide
by the end of 2008 as to remove
Wolves from the Endangered Species
list in Idaho, Montana, Wyoming
and Montana.

It held the last public
meeting on Emergency
Rule 21, which had
to do with 'predation
control'.

It's unclear if there
are any changes from the previous
plan which called for duo
status from Wolves.

Where in the northwestern
part of the state you have
the trophy game area, and
the rest of the state being
called a predator zone, where
they can be shot on sight.

12 'conservation' groups
may sue again if they are
delisted.

And the questionable Frank
Camenzind (franz@jhalliance.org), executive director
of Jackson Hole Conservation
Alliance, said a new lawsuit
would happen if duo status didn't
disappear.

He said that the Alliance and
other groups oppose
duo status because it threatens
genetic connectivity among Wolves.

Funny because Wolves can be slaughtered
in Trophy Game areas under livestock issues
which most likely could happen in
the entire state.

And Camenzind conveniently forgets
that he and other groups were involved
in the slaughter of 106 Wolves before
they were re-listed as of late.

2) As we talked about over and over again,
the USFWS' Mexican Gray Wolf Program, has been
a complete failure.

We talk about how it's because the USFWS has
slaughtered Wolves over and over and recalled
many of them to captivity where they will
never see the light of day.

An article says it's both sides that is the problem
and that they can't co-exist, which is ranchers
and 'conservationists'.

It's odd because you can't compromise the rights
of others and when you have polls, which even
this article CANNOT DENY are in favor of the
Wolf, it makes this point valid. You can't kill
Wolves, but you cannot let livestock die.

Which we have been saying this for years.
And how do you solve this divide? Non-Lethal
Methods and PF Ranching.

By using Livestock Protection Dogs, fladry,
rotating livestock, better fencing, education
and more, we could halt this problem.
Instead the government agencies and conservation
groups ignore blatantly all of this.

And because of that we have failures in all
the Wolf programs in the lower 50 states.

And if you have conservationists who support
lethal methods, like as we reported recently,
you have ranchers who want more death, and
conservationists fail themselves and the Wolf.

By the way, only 52 Mexican Gray Wolves exist
outside of zoos and breeding centers. 300
are in captivity.

http://features.csmonitor.com/environment/2008/12/22/howls-of-protest-greet-mexican-wolf-reintroduction/

Sounds like success to me.

WOLF MEDIA UPDATES 12/22/2008

1) Field and Stream Magazine's
Special Double issue, December and
January, has been extremely busy trying
to indoctrinate people against
Wolves. They also made their
intention clear to infiltrate
environmental groups to make
their industry survive.
And some of their other 'views'
will be talked about here.

In their 'A Year in Review'
article they started by
saying that first they could
hunt Wolves, and 'then some
judge put the kibosh on that'.
That judge was Judge Molloy
of the U.S. District Court.

(pg. 121)

On the page on the left they
made the Wolf in the collage
of images look really monstrous.
Of course that's not surprising.

(pg. 120)

The magazine writers of this article
were more than happy that the
Wolf was about to be fair 'game'
by putting a up arrow liking that.

It blames them for chewing through
wild game, like hunters own Elk
or something.

The magazine thought that the delisting
of Wolves on March 28, 2008 marked
the successful end to reintroduction.

Yet they were sadly disappointed and
mocked that when a 'small percentage'
of Wolves (106 to be precise) were
killed after a wait and see period of
60 days.

They said that then a consortium of
groups filed suit to have Wolves put back
on the ESA in Missoula, Montana, which
they which baffles us, compares it to
San Fransisco.

[We didn't agree with this. An emergency
injunction should have been filed.
Unfortunately many groups felt a trial
simulation which would cause many lives
to die participated in this.

http://www.heartofthewolf.org/TruthAboutUpholdingWolfStatus.htm

They said that hunting was allowed until
July when the Judge halted the delisting.

The article then says that the USFWS
rolled over like a sick puppy and said
"Oops, our mistake. Put Wolves back
on the list, please. Then they said
that Wolves were put back on the Endangered
Species list October 14 and that once
again Elk wept.

(pg. 127, even has a picture of a Wolf
and it has a caption that says 'Lucky
Dog' Wolves are once again federally
protected.)

As you know from our website, the USFWS
has been against Wolves ever since back
in the past, circa 1946.

Elk weeping from a predator that is
SUPPOSED to prey on them? No, what they
would be weeping about is how men
(and in some cases women like Sarah Palin)
who get a sadistic joy out of blasting
animals to death shoot them for that
reason. To put their heads as a symbol
of pride in their living rooms.

Elk know the role Wolves have and don't
hate them for it. Nature knows that all
are integral to it's survival and all
pieces of the whole are important.

And if Wolves are delisted, more will
suffer, and not just by government hands.

Why?

Well they are trying a resurgence of their
ranks since they are declining as they
put it. And they are deathly afraid of this.

In their article, 'Why Johnny Won't Hunt'
they don't like the fact that hunting
apparently is on the decline. They
say it's because of rampant urbanization
as well as 'changed' cultural values,
'American religions' of organized sports
and electronic entertainment that are keeping
kids out of the woods and that their lack
of commitment could be the fatal blow.

(This is interesting because on pg. 4 of
their magazine they have an ad for Deer
Hunter Tournament for PC...and pg. 138 in
their Field & Stream Gift Guide 2008)

They think they have seven ways to bring
it back into a 'viable tradition'.

1) Make hunting a family-recreation
activity.

2) Invite someone hunting, in particular
someone who has stopped due to financial
or logistical reasons.

3) Start a rod and gun club.

4) Get on the mailing list for the USFWS
and the Department of Natural Resources,
and attend their meetings to make sure
'hunters have a voice'.

5) Reach out to conservation groups and
environmental groups.

They say to get involved in any efforts to
protect lands that accommodate hunting.

(This goes to show they really only care
about land because that's the only place
they can only hunt on. They don't
really truly care about protecting nature
for it's own sake. Not that hunting
is ethical in the first place.)

6) Join a mainstream environmental group.

This is because they want to fool people
by saying that a hunters presence will dispel
stereotypes about hunters and the 'sport'.
And they say that 'you will be surprised
by the number of members interested in taking
you up on the offer on a hunt'.

Is that so? If that were true, their numbers for
supporters wouldn't be low.

Also go here:
http://www.fieldandstream.com/article/Hunting/Why-Johnny-Wont-Hunt

And here:
http://www.fieldandstream.com/johnny

Comment at both.

We cannot pander to hunters for any reason,
otherwise we get incidents like this:

http://www.chattanoogan.com/articles/article_83936.asp
http://www.sierraclub.org/sierrasportsmen/
http://www.sierraclub.org/sierrasportsmen/policy.asp

This was when the Sierra Club was once against hunting.
Then they backstabbed and snuck funds from the director
at the time, Paul Watson, to fund hunting trips and
contests.

When he found out about this treachery, he
quit being involved with the Sierra Club after
his tenure of 2003-2006.

And also this isn't the only group that has sold out.

Colorado Environmental Coalition supports the
choice of Ken Salazar for Secretary of the
Interior. Eliza Jones, executive director says
that he will be able to work with all sides.
Just because a side exists, doesn't mean it's
ethical or productive for that matter.

This could spell bad news later on especially
for the environment. And for animals since guess
who caught wind of this, Field and Stream..

http://fieldandstream.blogs.com/news/2008/12/update-environm.html

Hunting is a corrupt and sadistic industry which
of course is also connected with the NRA.

If Wolves are delisted, Wolves will be the target
of hunters, the NRA, Field and Stream and many
avenues. And many animals already are, like Coyotes,
Bears, Lynx, and other species.

Most reasonable people don't advocate the murder
of people for sport, or any other reason. So why should
it be any different for animals?

2) Yellowstone Journal's winter issue has an article
called David and Goliath: When the 80-pound weakling
takes on the 2,000-pound giant.

That title really slams the Wolf there. Of course neither
is the Bison.

It talked about how Wolves have to face off against Bison
when Elk and Deer aren't around.

The article briefly mentions the Mollie Pack which
was bizarrely named after the former head of the
USFWS who was responsible for the reintroduction
of Wolves to Yellowstone. Of course the USFWS has
been nothing but a horrific nightmare for Wolves.

Of course, so has Doug Smith, one of their staunch
supporters and the posterchild for Wolves in Yellowstone,
who is quoted in the article.

The Mollie Pack feed solely on Bison in the winter.

The Firehole Pack feeds off of Elk, Deer and Bison.
Wolves in Lamar will go after Bison if Deer and Elk
aren't available.

The article talks about how Wolves need 3 to 5 pounds
a day per animal. Thus if a Bison is too hard to kill,
it isn't worth it.

Bison are capable of defending themselves and can run
40 miles per hour. Wolves have to counteract by harassing
or finding weak points in their prey. They can nip at their legs
or run through the herd, finding the right moment to
strike. This can last for days. Finally defeating their
prey they can eat 20-30 pounds of meat and have what's
described as being 'meat-drunkeness'.

What's really fascinating is that the Blackfoot Native
American Tribe, back before Horses and guns were acquired
by the Blackfoot, used the techniques described above to
hunt Bison as well.

For more on the Blackfoot go here:
http://www.nativeamericans.com/Blackfeet.htm

Lastly, the article mentions how Wolves rarely hunt

WOLF NEWS AND WOLF-DOG NEWS 12/18/2008

Here is the latest in Wolf and Wolf-Dog
News.

1) First off we are asking those who
support Wolves and Heart of the Wolf
Organization to donate to our group
by buying the CD Journeys of the Wolf
by the talented Christine Campbell.

http://www.heartofthewolf.org/WolfMusic.htm

To listen to some of the tracks go here:
http://www.myspace.com/heartofthawolf

These CDs were given to us by the
generous artist, and all proceeds
currently go to our group. It will
fund our various activities, from
outreach, to our projects we are
developing for the future.

To listen to songs from the CD go
to our MySpace webpage at
http://myspace.com/heartofthawolf

2) The USFWS may very well
have the Wolves delisted once
again today or on Friday.

Once again the battle lines
are drawn.

2a) Ed Bangs says Dale Hall
at the top of the USFWS is considering
the options of a yes or a no.

Bangs is also aware of the growing
number of Non Governmental Organizations
that are sending out alerts and he shoots
them down. He says letters are all
the same so it doesn't take long to
go through them. We are sure he is
talking about possibly groups like
us and others. He doesn't want to
consider logical ethical arguments
against delisting.

This is because the USFWS uses
a computer program from Carnegie
Mellon University.

Bangs said this: The computer program was able to tease out 39,000 unique comments from the 240,000 total, Bangs said.

"The comment period is not a vote, it is looking for
substantive issues," he said. "Every single issue is
looked at by a person, but it allows you to deal with
these identical emails more efficiently."

This is his and the USFWS' scheme to shoot down the
number of people that actually support a cause
which dooms the whole reason of a democracy. Which
why does Ed Bangs and the USFWS continue to be able
to operate then if they have to serve a democracy?

In his logic, only one person from each side then should
be able to submit a yes or no for delisting with no details
as to why and no one else can submit any different details
that may be of use as to supporting to Wolves.

http://www.trib.com/articles/2008/12/15/news/wyoming/7f1dd6f59b9115958725751e00042516.txt
(Comment in support of Wolves)

Since most environmental groups don't bring up
Non-Lethal Methods and PF Ranching as to how
they are effective and should be used in public
statements and in regards to legal matters.
Methods that even they don't really support. So
basically Ed Bangs doesn't want those views seen
and heard. Of course you already knew that.

And he shoots down like Wolves, NGO's that want
to protect Wolves and support them. He doesn't
care about Wolves, only death. Which is why
he supports the hunting industry and those in
the ranching industry who don't know about
NLM's or PF Ranching and won't use them.

2b) Adrian Wydeven, notorious murderer
of Wolves in the Wisconsin
DNR hopes they will be delisted
since Wolves are 'illegally'
being killed while under the Endangered
Species Act.

Thing is he hasn't accepted over
many years is that by murdering
Wolves, you will just feed the
desire for those who hate them
to have more slaughtered.

And he ignores Non-Lethal Methods
and PF Ranching as a way to 'control
problem animals'.

The 'problem' is Wydeven. After
all these years, he refuses like
many agencies to use Non-Lethal
Methods and PF Ranching. He will
lie to the public until the end
about how destruction and mayhem
when it comes to livestock issues.

And he thinks that the population of
Wolves, being 600, is too much.

He is applying to the USFWS for
a permit that would allow the
slaughter of Wolves in livestock
issues.

Yet he says that "In the areas where wolves are living,
there still seems to be a strong element of people being
against the wolves. That's always been the biggest
challenge, having people accept wolves where they are living." -- Adrian Wydeven

http://www.madison.com/wsj/home/local/324365
(Register to comment in support of Wolves)

Uh-huh. He needs to be stopped,
like the USFWS in their attempts
to want Wolves delisted and
slaughtered in livestock issues.
They both ignore NLM's and
PF Ranching and continue to lie
that murder is good.

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

As we reported a few days ago,
even conservation groups and
some environmentalists support
that. It shows the actual 'growing
sentiment' of the continued lie
that slaughter equals tolerance.

WHAT YOU CAN DO?

A) Oppose the delisting of Wolves
today. Bring up what was listed
here in your letters to Dale
Hall. Sue if Wolves are delisted
if you can. This has to be
stopped. And oppose Wydeven's
plans for the destruction of
Wolves in livestock issues.

Dale Hall email

dale_hall@fws.gov

Contact your views to Ed Bangs
since he believes not in a democracy
and Wolves interests shouldn't
be truly heard. Sue him if you
can as well.

ed_bangs@fws.gov

B) Oppose Adrian Wydeven of the
Wisconsin DNR.

2) Obama has so far made poor
choices for those to represent
his interests for office recently.

One is choosing Senator Ken
Salazar of Colorado for Department
of the Interior.

He supported the use of the
sodium cyanide and sodium fluoroacetate
to prevent livestock issues,
which murders predators. And
has killed many pets and dogs.

http://www.csmonitor.com/2008/0118/p02s01-usgn.html

And now being in the Interior
this nomination could be very bad for
Wolves and many other Endangered
Species.

Some 'conservation' groups are
against this nomination some are
not. Both are dirty.

Western Watersheds Project is against
this nomination. Yet they were
one of the groups that did a delayed
emergency injunction to stop the
delisting of Wolves the first time
around in the Northern Rockies which
led to the deaths of 106 Wolves.

http://www.bignews.biz/?id=785225&pg=2&keys=wolves-wolf-shot-killed

League of Conservation supports him
thinking he will turn around and believes
a non-partisan candidate is needed.
Which would be great if it didn't
compromise the Environment and Animal
rights

http://www.idahostatesman.com/244/story/607551.html

In otherwords, selling out environmental
true interests continues, while the
victims continue to suffer even more.

How much will remain when it's over is
unclear.

And it's related to people as well.

2a) Obama's second mistake is choosing
Rev. Rick Warren to do his invocation
at his inauguration. Rick Warren is
against Gay Marriage, which is a part of
Gay Rights.

http://cosmos.bcst.yahoo.com/up/player/popup/?rn=3906861&cl=11155791&ch=4226716&src=news

So far we have a lack of interest in
Environmental issues and Gay Rights.

This is bad news. Please contact your
feelings and thoughts to Obama at:

http://change.gov/page/s/yourvision

Obama wants to 'unite' the country
even though rights that should really
be rights, like Gay Marriage.

I think he forgot that freedom was
a right denied to African Americans
as well as marriage by African Americans
used to not be a right at one point
in American history.

How does this relate to Wolves? It may
not you think, but choosing people like
Salazar and Warren shows that the rights
of many, Animal or Human, may not be safe
soon.

WOLVES MUST BE PROTECTED AND PLEASE TELL HIM ABOUT
THEIR PLIGHT AS WELL. IN ADDITION TO OTHER
OPPRESSED PEOPLE OUT THERE, LIKE GAYS
(WHO HE FORGOT ABOUT RECENTLY),
AND THOSE WHO HE NEEDS TO GIVE ATTENTION
TO, LIKE NATIVE AMERICANS. HELP ALL THREE
IF YOU CAN AT SOME POINT FOLKS.

3) The Swedish Government has taken
interest in the idea of culling through
'protected' hunts of Wolves and Wolverines.

http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5269

'Environmental' Minister Andreas Carlgren (c)
recently said: "I do not think it is necessary
that the wolf population is not developed so
quickly that particular regions' humans cannot adapt."

Cannot adapt?

This is ridiculous. Humans not being able to
adapt to Wolves and Wolverines? There are
only 200 Wolves and 490 Wolverines in Sweden.

And how many people are there in Sweden?:

9,234,209 as of 2008

So basically Carlgren is saying that it is
more difficult for over 9 million people
to adapt to 200 Wolves and over 400 Wolverines
than the other way around? It should be
the other way around. Nature can't adapt
with the continuing overpopulation of
Humans. And the continued desire of some Humans
in power to slaughter life in Nature rather
than protect it from some like the Kennel Club
in Sweden fear and hate the Wolf. (See 12/16/2008 update)

This is no different than the agenda of
Alaskan Government who has through the
Alaskan Department of Fish and Game slaughtered
many Wolves in culls through aerial hunting
to 'protect Moose populations.' Which
Carlgren himself has confirmed to support
this idea of culling.

The Natural Resources Group has been
assigned with investigating the 'possibilities'.

There is not much time. Especially since the
NRG has been conducting limited hunts on
Wolves.

The Natural Resources proposal will be
February 2009.

It will include: what the population's size and composition
and their geographic dispersal is.

Culling goals are unknown.

Carlgen also wants to have a proposal as to
how the genetic status of Wolves is to be
strengthened. The NRG is supposed to examine
the prerequisites for as well as the consequences
of transplanting Wolves and the relocation
of Wolves that came naturally into Sweden.

All of this isn't good. Eliminate more Wolves
and you eliminate the more chances also of a
diverse breed of Wolf and a better genetic
base.

This is all bad. Oppose this today.

A) Contact the Natural Resources Committee
in Sweden in opposition to this horrible
plan.

nordisk-rad@norden.org
http://www.norden.org/web/sf3-adresser/sk/index.asp?lang=
(Address your letters to the Swedish Natural Resources

Especially Carlgren who is the brain child
of supporting this plan.

WOLF NEWS AND WOLF-DOG NEWS 12/16/2008

Here is the latest news in Wolf and Wolf-Dog
issues.

This batch of information isn't pretty.
We need your help folks today.

For one, please help donate to our cause
by buying Journeys of the Wolf CD.

Donations go to Heart of the Wolf Organization.

http://www.heartofthewolf.org/WolfMusic.htm

1) The AP reported that more Wolves have
been slaughtered in Livestock issues
than ever since their reintroduction
into the Northern Rockies 10 years ago.

Any murder is wrong and here is some of
what the facts/numbers break down as of late:

Montana: 'wildlife' agents slaughter 27
members of a Wolf pack near Kalispell,
Montana. That was the Hog Heaven Pack.

This year til even into December,
245 Wolves were 'legally' killed by
wildlife agents and ranchers.

Idaho: 101 Wolves
Montana: 102 Wolves
Wyoming: 42 Wolves

This is 31 percent more than last year,
which has been recorded by state and federal records.

Although some 'environmental' groups plan
to challenge the second attempt of delisting
by the USFWS, the issue of Non-Lethal Methods
and PF Ranching aren't a topic they are
bringing up as well in the mass media.

Some even like Defenders of Wildlife support
the destruction of Wolves in livestock issues.

http://www.boiseweekly.com/gyrobase/Content?oid=oid%3A114727
http://www.heartofthewolf.org/WhatWillWork.txt
sstone@defenders.org

And now they are regretting it. The Sheep in Wolf's
clothing are finally seeing the Pandora's Box that
was opened.

"I realize there are times on private land where wolves
have to be taken out, but I think this goes way beyond that now.
They're not being managed. They're being killed." -- Jerry Black,
a wildlife activist from Missoula, Mont.

Even worse is the fact that Mike Jimenez of the USFWS in
Wyoming and Carolyn Sime of the Montana FWP don't mind
slaughtering Wolves and still continue their campaign
of deceiving, lying to the public, about the need
for Non-Lethal Methods, PF Ranching and their education
to the public.

"If you kill two here, two there, by the end of the season you
would remove the bulk of the pack, but you also lost all this
livestock, so you lost the public tolerance for wolves.
I'm not sure I was helping wolves by letting them kill livestock over and over."
--Mike Jimenez USFWS

"In the course of conserving wolves, some will die." -- Carolyn Sime,
wolf coordinator for the Montana Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks.

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

This would eliminate the issue. But they continue
their campaign instead of murder and mayhem, and
environmentalists and groups actually support it.
Management is horrible. And until state, and federal
agencies along with environmental groups finally
get this, more Wolves will get slaughtered.

And in livestock issues this is increasing.

Below shortly is why.

But first, here is how you can help.

A) Contact the AP, Associated Press, about
the truth. How Mike Jimenez and Carolyn Sime
continue to deny and lie about the truth
of NLM's and PF Ranching. And how they
need to educate, implement and enforce
these methods.

Until this is done, nothing will change.
And they need to be sued even if they
will not change. And this isn't happening
either..

And 'environmental' groups need to stop
supporting the destruction of Wolves in
livestock issues and the idea of management.

Even some Wolf Sanctuaries have done it
in the past and still do. This has to end.

MATTHEW BROWN
info@ap.org

Please contact your media and officials about these issues.
http://www.heartofthewolf.org/MediaGovernmentContacts.htm

B) Contact and or sue Mike Jimenez and
Carolyn Sime in opposition to this
and expose their responses to the public.

Mike Jimenez: Mike Jimenez
Mike.Jimenez@wgf.state.wy.us

mike_jimenez@fws.gov

Carolyn Sime: http://fwp.mt.gov/contact/direct.aspx?id=581109

3) The Montana FWP and USDA Wildlife Services
are going to be slaughtering and
collaring more Wolves in livestock
issues.

1 Wolf was murdered on Dec. 4th near
Wisdom, Montana. 2 more are slated
to be slaughtered.

1 Wolf is going to be collared
and another slaughtered east of
Wisdom.

Also a Wolf is going to be collared
and another slaughtered in Polaris
in Montana. This is again
in both cases, livestock issues that
could have been prevented through
NLM's and PF Ranching..

http://www.kulr8.com/news/state/36211014.html

Unfortunately the AP keeps running
these stories rather than NLM's
and PF Ranching.

Please act by contacting the Montana FWP and
USDA Wildlife Services in opposition to this
and sue if possible.

A) Contact the state and feds about this too.

B) Contact Montana Government Officials in opposition to this.
http://www.congress.org/congressorg/officials/congress/?district=01&lvl=C&azip=59101&state=MT

Also the worst part is their program
is a failure just besides livestock issues.

Now since the Montana FWP isn't satisfied
with their collaring program, they want
to further their oppressive methods
by using GPS collars to further their methods..

http://dailyinterlake.com/articles/2008/12/15/news/local_montana/news01.txt

4) The Washington Department of Fish
and Wildlife is using the Howl Boxes
to monitor Wolves in Pend Oreille County.

Unfortunately we can see this being used
in Wolf Management in the future and this
will be a bad thing. More micromanagement
and other horrific results possibly in
the future.

http://www.tri-cityherald.com/1358/story/416005.html

5) In Michigan poaching is on the rise
of Wolves. Unfortunately people still
fear and hate the Wolf. We must remain
vigilant to educate the public and not
resort to embracing murder to pacify
a small audience who wants deaths of
Wolves.

The operation among Wolf murderers and
haters called, Shoot Shovel and Shut up,
is what they do.

MI Wolves started to come back in 1989
when a pair showed up. This was after
many years when in the 1960's they all
but disappeared.

http://news.softpedia.com/news/Upper-Peninsula-Gray-Wolves-Killed-Despite-Being-Endangered-100094.shtml

6) The 'Natural Resources' group
in Sweden has been quite busy in
their efforts to oppress Wolves,
much like the Montana FWP and USFWS.

They were responsible for the death
of a Wolf in Hasselfors region,
northwest of Laxå near Grönsjön.

http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5260

And they along with the Swedish Kennel Club,
want the Wolf population reduced.

The SKC wants it frozen.

Currently the Wolf population in Sweden is 200.

Carina Olsson-Körsvik who is the leader for the Kennel Club in Värmland.
thinks that both hunting dog owners and those who have pet dogs are upset.

http://timberwolfinformation.org/info/archieve/newspapers/viewnews.cfm?ID=5261

Well, those who want Wolves to be murdered are upset,
and we think that dog owners need to not be fearful
and actually practice animal husbandry practices
as well as have hunting banned. If people didn't
use hunting dogs they wouldn't be killed by Wolves.

A) Contact the Natural Resources Committee
in Sweden in opposition to this recent tragedy
in Hasselfors that they caused and plan to
cause in Sandsjö.

WOLF-DOG NEWS 12/16/2008

Here is the latest on the Wolf-Dog Saphira,
she is in real danger.

Because of the recession it is hard to find
a home for this Wolf-Dog and other Wolf Dogs
because of their recession. And currently
Freedom is paying out of their own pocket
to help Saphira until she gets a home.

To help her and other Wolf-Dogs here is
a link to do that:

Wolf-Media Updates 12/16/2008

1) Just so you know folks the Nancy Drew game,
Nancy Drew: The White Wolf is out for the Wii.
A great gift for the holidays or to purchase
anytime as a game.

In this game you have to solve why Icicle Creek Lodge
is being sabotaged. You also meet and
befriend the Wolf that is in the area to help
you solve the mystery.

http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/ProductDetails.aspx?product_id=71801

2) Disney is either hitting or missing with Wolves.

Their Monopoly Disney villains unfortunately has
a spot on it you can land on has the Big Bad Wolf.
The Big Bad Wolf is on the cover of the game.

However Little Einstein's Amazing Animals,
has the Little Einstein's actually find an
Arctic Wolf at one point, and it didn't
demonize the Wolf. It even says that they
mostly hunt in packs, which is true.

So this is a hit and miss.

3) Insignia TV brand actually promoted
Wolves on their TV for sale. In particular
the HDTV 26 inch 720p LCD HDTV/DVD Combo.

Here is the pic I took of that.



Glad another company is also trying to make the Wolves cool
in mainstream society.

Until next time stay tuned and help Wolves
and Wolf-Dogs out there.

Now for the latest news and alerts.

1) 6 Wolves were shot to death in
Wisconsin. This was the day
before and during the gun deer
season.

Currently the feds and state
agencies are investigating it
since it is a federal crime
to shoot Wolves right now.

The first body found was a male
who was collared when captured
in Michigan's Gogebic County in 2005 and disappeared
to Wisconsin to make a new territory
for himself. Tragic his journey
came to an end 3 years later.

The other casualties were:

2) adult female from Monroe County
3) adult female in Vilas County
4) adult male in Rusk County (had a radio collar [slave collar] on him)
5) adult female in Juneau County
6) adult male in Adams County

If anyone knows anything about this please call the Wisconsin
DNR's toll-free hotline number at 1-800-847-9367.
You can call 24/7 folks.

http://www.madison.com/wsj/home/local/317975

Note we don't support the DNR or the USFWS since they
murder Wolves in livestock issues, but we want to see
the murderers of Wolves brought to justice whenever
we can.

2) The Wyoming Game and Fish Department
is desperate to get Wolves delisted so
Wolves can be shot and murdered.

How
