Illogical

The wolf is considered an endangered species in the United States.<br />n<br />nendangered species: a species threatened with extinction<br />n<br />nYet in Alaska there are so many of them they <a href="http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/wireStory?id=1547174&CMP=OTC-RSSFeeds0312">kill them to boost moose and caribou populations</a> since the wolves kill so many of them. <br />n<br />nIf there are so many wolves in Alaska, how are they endangered? If the wolves kill so many moose and caribou, why are we importing this threat to our wild animals, and domestic, down to the lower 48? Since the introduction of wolves, hasn't there been an unexplained decrease in the population of elk in and around the park? Calling them endangered doesn't seem very logical to me. Their prey sounds more endangered.<br />n<br />n<b>It's a place of strange, bizarre and illogical things, where people don't do what common sense demands. Chinua Achebe </b>
