  1. Please leave the protection on all wildlife. To have a healthy ecosystem we need them . You want to save money, quit paying for protection of trump and his cronies.

  2. Please keep our wolves safe . Co-exisrance is possible . They’re too important to lose .

  3. Please consider of saving the wolves, rather than killing them. They were here before us, and if you leave them alone, they will leave you alone.

  4. Let the wolves live they are meant to live just as we are meant to live on this earth ….They mind their own and add beauty to this world . We learn so much from them just as they can us …. If humankind was meant to be humanevil then it would have so think about this …..what if you or your young ones were being hunted down and murdered it would be a different ball game then wouldn’t it ????Karma has its way of changing things around more than we want to think or believe ….. So with that being said I will close this comment and leave you with that thought ….
