Letter: Respect natural order

The Columbian
Published: April 2, 2014, 5:00pm

What is wrong with Idaho, that they would still fear wolves?

Have they not progressed from reading “Little Red Riding Hood” or the “Three Little Pigs”?

A March 28 story reported “Wolf-control bill signed by Idaho Gov. Otter.” The bill “will allow the killing of wolves that come into conflict with wildlife or livestock.”

What are they supposed to eat? Grass?

It is a sad day when an animal is so feared and misunderstood that “many residents are opposed to the re-establishment of the species” in their state.

Of the 1,600 wolves killed since 2011, how many of those killed a human?
