Erik:

Thank you very much for posting.

I printed the article and read it yesterday at the office.

It appears the issues are amazingly identical for the Finns as for us. The complete disregard for local interests represented by the European Commission mimics the same by our Federal Government.

I plan to contact this fellow and have already called the head of the Idaho Anti-Wolf Coalition.

In particular I would be very interested to pursue the legal concept of violation of civil rights by the introduction of wolves into the environment. The author and I are on the exact same page; wolves are no different than rats or tuberculosis and their introduction represents a threat to the life, lifestyle and property of citizens where they are introduced.
