I wish we could return the wolf population to what it was 200 years ago but it would not make sense in today's world. I feel bad for the ranchers but the woves were here first and are an impressive animal. I guess the two (wolves and humans) don't mix well and probably never will.

Just for the sake of playing devil's advocate here I would argue that while the wolves were here first originally, it was just as harmful to the environment that we reintroduced them. I think anytime we interfere with nature, even if it's only to "fix" previous mistakes, we are walking a dangerous line and must be very careful.
