Wolves in Ontario

In the last couple of years, the wolf population has sky-rocketed in Northwestern Ontario, Canada, which in turn causes a decline in the number of deer. It's said that one wolf will kill an average of 17 deer per year. The crazy part is that just a few years ago, a hunter could harvest 1 wolf per day year round with a small game license. Now they've changed it to a limit of 2 wolves per year and each license is about $250 plus the small game license.

That's pretty crazy I think ... personally I love wolves and such but if over population does happen we need to do something about it and I like to eat deer (very good might I add) and I don't want the deer population to plummet to where I can't hunt and that would be bad ... very bad.
