"they're populations are healthy and doing great.How did wolves ever manage before this?"Not a method of hunting I would use though"Humans have no natural instinct to hunt. Methodology is irrelevant. There is no better or worse style to hunt outside of custom. Granades, traps.. 6 of 1, half a dozen of the other.."this is our home""Home" = graveyard."try making changes in your own communities/states" Not all states have dwindling carabou populations..

Is there any way that we could see more wounded wolves.Its a shame when wolves are cleanly killed.Wolves need to die the same way that they kill their prey.Slow and painfully.

You all say that because of the population of wolves growing it's ok and a duty to kill them...for their sake,right?Ever heard of Darwin's Natural Selection theory? And what about Malthus study on demographics? You can apply the same for these wolves; when their population is big enough to leave some wolves without food their number will decrease and the most adapted will survive....Leave nature do it own job!

i am an avid hunter but this is something i am against. just like hunting bears and cougers with dogs.

I don't see anything wrong with this either, as it is in place to help manage other populations of animals. The video which shows men shooting from the plane looks quite old to me (1970s version???).

I see nothing wrong with it, they're populations are healthy and doing great.Not a method of hunting I would use though. This is Alaska, this is our home, if you don't like thing's the way they are, try making changes in your own communities/states.

lonewolfxlll. You ever been to Alaska? The wolves hunted here legally are only within certain game management areas, not the whole state! Thes so called "independant biologists are wolf lovers! What do you think they are going to say/ And the areial wolf control only happens in "5 game units up here" in an area of 365 million acres of true wilderness, most of which is roadless, the wolf control is to help some remote villages who depend on moose and caribou! "Not sport hunters"! Ignorant ass!!!

as horrible and pointless as hunting any creature is, people do far worse things to animals. like experimenting on them,bruatlly slaughtering them for meat,killing them for fur, torturing them in rodeos or gambling sports. its hard for me to understand why a person would do these things to a poor defenseless animal.

betterstructures --Actually, the reason that they are trying to "depredate" the area has more to do with RAISING prey populations as a way to boost hunting TOURISM. It's so that humans can be the top predators, and its all about money (and big ego). For me, that's not a good enough reason to destroy this endangered population in this brutal, horrifying way.
