Here are some quotations regarding the pros of wolf reintroduction:
"When we learned that the last wolves in Yellowstone had been killed in 1926, we hypothesized that wolves might have a significant influence on the growth of aspen through cascading effects. Wolves eat elk and elk eat aspen, so we believed that the lack of wolves actually led to the decimation of aspen." --Bill Ripple, professor with the Department of Forest Resources at Oregon State University
"If it wasn't for the wolves, I probably wouldn't be in business...Before the wolf reintroduction, our staff included one person who was barely making it, and now we have a staff of three to five, year-round." --Carl Swoboda, director of operations for touring organization Safari Yellowstone
"Ninety percent of the people who come here [to Yellowstone] want to see wolves--clients come from as Spain, England, Switzerland, and France." --Carl Swoboda
"[Wolf reintroduction] has caused no land use restrictions that might disrupt traditional human activities, such as logging, mining, livestock grazing, hunting, trapping, or wild land recreation." --Ed Bangs
"There is no documented case of a healthy wold wolf killing anyone in North America." --Betsy Carpenter
"With proper management [humans and wolves can coexist]." --Ed Bangs
