Wolf Preservation

Wolf preservation is very important. As most animals, if wolves went extinct the ecosystem would be messed up. Most people see wolves as brutal, savage, carnivores that will kill you if you come in contact with one, but fortunately this is wrong. The truth is, Wolves are more important they get credit for. if they were to be hunted to extinction many species would be harmed, including humans.

Even if you personally dislike wolves, you won't want them to go extinct. If wolves no longer existed many species would slowly die off as well. For example: Wolves pick off and eat animals that are small, injured or sick, so if you take away this animal's predator there gene pools will slowly get worse and worse which will make them to also go extinct. There is also many plants that benefit from rotten meant and bones, and if these plants don't survive then many species of herbivores many go extinct as well. People generally underestimate wolves and there effect on the ecosystem, and thus think that they are unimportant.

Among other things, people hunt and bounty wolves because we think they are simply savage beasts that will attack anything, this is very very wrong. Wolves, like many other creatures are scared of humans and will only attack there natural prey. There has NEVER been a report of a healthy wolf attacking a human in North America. Our fear of wolves dates back to the 1800s when mythology about wolves was very common, this is also where stories like little red riding hood, the three little pigs, and the bot who cried wolf originated. Wolves are not blood-thirsty man eaters and should be treated with the same respect as any other animal.
