Guess I might have been wrong about them considering wolves. I've got a question, though. Does anyone know how you go about "intensively managing" a wolf? Can you imagine the lawsuits if one "slipped its leash" and attacked someone?

There is too much sense in this suggestion for it to ever be considered. Maybe after the "average American tourist" witnessed one of their dogs or, God forbid, one of their kids dying "naturally", they'd rethink the whole wolf introduction concept.
There hasn't been a reported case of wolves attacking humans. Not only that, but it'd be absurd for people file a lawsuit against a national park where an apex predator belongs. Wolves tend to be more avoidant of people than bears. As for the topic on this thread, leave it to mass beauracracy, and mass stupidity when it comes to wasting our tax dollars. If they really wanna spend that much money so badly, why don't they pay the hunters who actually enjoy elk instead of wasting all that good meat at least for processing if not for ammunition and such? Mmm... elk steaks, elk kebab, elk flank, elk pot roast, elk burger... the possibilities are elk-less!!
