The experiment with the reintroduction of wolves at yellowstone park proved that to fix the ecosystem you NEED to unregulate super predators like wolves. The trophic cascad happening when super predators regulate other species and autoregulate themself based on the food population is the only way to fix earth. A doc that explain that better than me:
Five entire families can be killed, totalling 30 wolves, in move campaigners say is illegal under EU law
Can we please, for the love of everything that is holy, start punishing those that sign off on these things directly, with prison sentences?
If I kill a wolf, a protected species, I go to jail and rightfully so. If the government kills 30 members of said protected species, at beat it's okay, at worst it will cause a sternly worded letter, maybe even a fine because we all know that that will teach them!
Its the same as companies being able to break rules that will land normal citizens in jail, and said companies do it a thousand fold yet get away with a light monetary payment that is a small fraction of the profit they made by braking these rules.
START SENDING PEOPLE TO PRISON.
Then watch how fast companies and governments start behaving themselves properly
"country decides to further the human-driven extinction of endangered animal by slaughtering half the population within borders"
Very cool, Sweden.
No, I don't care about the people who feel uncomfortable living close to animals, keep your pets/kids inside or move away from their territory. I have wolves, coyote, and allegedly a mountain lion living within roaming distance of me, and I act accordingly. Heck, during covid someone got a doorbell camera picture of a bear in their front yard.
I live in sweden and i totally agree. Its a very small amount of people who benefit from this and they should probably just live in cities or the south like everyone else. If you like nature but dont like wolves, pick a place where there are no wolves. Dont kill them.
