throughout ontario september 1 1967 to june 30 1968 the controversy over what to do about the wolves in northern ontario has been rag ing for sometime there are many who would like to see wolves completely exterminat ed the ontario federation of anglers and hunters has been urging the present bounty sys tem be discontinued this group believes the department of lands and forests could spend this money on a more adequate predator control pro gram although the exact sys tem they advocate is not stated in their new release it can be assumed they refer to a system of hired hunters or trappers to control the wolf populations in areas where they have be come a problem the department of lands to trappers is the bounty wolf pelts do not bring a large price most years but with the boun ty the price is sufficient to en courage professional trappers to trap them the department of lands and forests has 25 specially trained predator control offic ers to help teach these trappers to more successfully trap wol ves as many hunters can testify few wolves are shot by hunters who do not specially hunt wolves being i very cautious animal the wolves are rarely seen by the average hunter it is our belief that most of the bounties are paid to people who trap professionally or to hunters who hunt wolves on a money making basis it is therefore our belief that the present bounty on wolves is

for libraries deer fiaibeen found that most raids on farms by wolves are by in dividual wolves and not by the population as a whole it is also noted that many socalled raids on farms by wolves are caused by dogs coyotes and coyotedog hybrids many dead deer found and reported as wolf kills have also been iden tified as being caused by dogs certainly no one who is aware of the facts wants wol ves wipedout while in some areas further control is neces sary in other areas the wolves play an important part in bal ancing the deer population to prevent overbrousing of their range and dieing from
