Reintroducing wolves harms ranchers because wolves kill livestock, forcing farmers to hire guards and requiring state compensation.

But hey, don't bring wolves back to ranching areas. Because you could have these idealistic, utopic view, utopia-based views of what you think a wolf would be like back in the wild. But no, they're going to, they take the easiest path possible, the easiest path possible. Oh, there's a bunch of animals that are stuck in a fenced in area that I could just hop over. I'll just go kill one and eat it. And that's what they do. And so these farmers now have to hire people 24-7 to be patrolling around their animals. So they're already operating at a very low margin, right? If you're a farmer and a rancher, you lose a bunch of cows. You're fucked. So now the state has to compensate them for depredation. So every time a wolf kills a cow, they compensate them. So it costs the state more money.
