Wolf Conservation Efforts

Hello! Hello! Today I’ll be talking about the lethal and non-lethal wolf removements! Thanks for the support from all around the world! 😊It means A LOT to me! So, thanks! (I did kind of over use the exclamation marks a bit!) 🤣

Lethal

The lethal removements of wolves remove them for good, in easier understanding, they basically KILL THEM! (Which in MY opinion, I would not given the circumstances) But the lethal removements hurt them or kill them, it’s especially true for hunters, farmers and ranchers, because when they capture a wolf eating they’re livestock, they will just kill them (farmers/ranchers). (FYI: I also did kind of over use the word ‘kill’ if you’re wondering!) But HUNTERS will just lethally remove wolves just because they HATE (and yes when I do say hate I REALLY mean HATE) them and because they just want the wolves GONE! But ENOUGH talking about why most of them use lethal removements, let’s talk about the items they use for the subject!

Electric Charged Wires: farmers use Electric charged wires to electrocute wolves to hurt them. It kinda like a warning from the farmers and ranchers to stay off the property.

Radio Collars: (and not like in the tracking-to-learn-information type of way!) Hunters use them to track wolves, find where they’re latest resting place is, and shoot them there.

Aerial Hunting: Hunters use helicopters or fixed wing aircraft to take wolves as quickly as needed.

Alright, now time to talk about the non-lethal removements of wolves!

Non Lethal-

Non lethal wolf removements are generally more effective than lethal removements to stop wolves from eating livestock. The items are mostly through noise, movement, and light that mimic humans that drive away wolves, so let’s talk about them!

Fladry- Fladry is attaching red flags to fences. The movement scares wolves, and they mostly avoid them.

Foxlights- Foxlights are an item that uses a light that mimics a human. Farmers use this to deter wolves from livestock. Since wolves are afraid of humans, they will stay away from the livestock.

Trained Herders- Trained Herders are people who ride on horses, surveying the area for wolves. If a real-life human is on a horse, the wolves will get fearful, and leave.

In MY opinion, you SHOULD use non-lethal because that means we’ll still have wolves on the landscape, and it doesn’t hurt them! In fact, it’s also MORE EFFECTIVE than lethal removements!

Thank you so much for reading this post! Have a great day and I’ll see ya’ll next time! AWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! 🐺🐺
