The condescending thing to do is indulge them, act like they have a point, as if the thing you know to be wrong might be at least somewhat right. 561927303

In some cases livestock losses actually increased after they were lethally removed. If killing wolves doesn’t reliably prevent future conflict, why is it still being used as a solution? 🔗 bit.ly/4x4hCNQwildbeimwild.comStudy: Shooting Wolves Barely Protects LivestockFive field studies compared: killing wolves mostly does not prevent livestock losses.
