I honestly don't understand this. Reddit is usually all for conservation. Well even if we want to refute that wolves should be protected at least provide a credible source instead of some anecdotal stories of your hunting trip. Imagine if we did the same for the other environmental issues:

I see a lot of trees when I went to the woods so I don't understand why people say that there's a problem with deforestation.

That sub is a joke at this point. They claim that they don't want videos of police abuse on there because it will end up being "political" but then every week there's a video of just how stellar cops are that makes it to the front page. I mean, if you wanna avoid any sort of bias wouldn't it be better to just completely ban any cop related videos on the sub?

The amount of comments on here, including the most upvoted comment, seems to be anecdotal evidence and people providing pics of their driveways with one wolf in it and others saying 'they saw' so many wolves. What's going on here? If we're going against the argument that wolves should be categorised as endangered or threatened then I'd like to see some verified numbers. Looks like a bunch of hunters on here who are unhappy with this AMA.

I respect the fact that she answered it instead of merely ignoring it. However I don't agree with:

but people do go to PETA headquarters and throw animals over their fence - with broken bones and things like that.

I'm sure there are some sick people who do this, however I highly doubt that the majority of animals euthanized by PETA are due to this reason. Seems like dodging and evading most of it.

Wanted to say congrats on beating cancer. You and other survivors are fucking champions. Nothing but respect for people like you.

Just wanted to ask you what was the stress like on your parents and family members during your treatment? Did it cause any strained relationships or anything like that? I apologize if this is too personal or anything.
