We have been releasing the wolves back in the wild in the USA (if you missed the programs about the Yellowstone wolves) in Yellowstone and a few other parts of northern US. 

If by resource you mean the plants in people's yard that the deer eat then yes.  They will eat those plants or as much as they can (they actually create a deer browse line where you can see up to a certain height almost all vegetation eaten in areas of heavy deer population).  I am not against hunting in any way considering that is part of what I went to college for.  Hunting is apart of wildlife I will not deny that but I am just trying to state that one needs to look at the big picture and realize what did we do/are we doing wrong that put us in this situation.  To be frank the handling of wildlife in the USA is piss fucking poor.  While it has improved in some areas it has a far long way to go.  We don't even know how to grow food properly in the USA.  So if we can't even grow our food right then we can't do shit right.  



Not enough wolves though since we are still having this deer problem.  It's a start, but we will never get enough back out there.

I know the big picture, and like you, I see that it sucks.  But I'm just staying within my own limits here and realizing that we use hunting now for a certain reason and it is justified, just as you say. 

I think that we should have those tall towers of farmland in big cities that I'm sure you've seen mentioned (can't remember the name) and a few of those could help sustain most big cities with their produce, greatly recude prices since there wouldn't be travel costs, and save land area as it would be spiraling upwards, not taking up flat land.

But our government is inept and I don't see any rich businessmen lining up to make it happen anytime soon.  Maybe it will.  I hope so.  Looks like all the billionaires are more concerned with space travel now (another worthy project) and with building themselves really tall skyscrapers (not as worthy).  Or they are just too busy running a company.

As human nature goes, I think the reason we aren't fixing how we grow our food is because it's not broken enough.  People are still eating, very few go hungry here, and we have excess food and farmland still.  If it ain't broke, don't fix it comes to mind, but its more like, sure it's broke, but it's not completely busted, so let's go with it until it explodes.  That's how people roll :p



BOOM!  FACE KICK!
