Wolves as Real Estate Agents: Proof Positive

The Endangered Species Act (ESA) has forced large predators into becoming involuntary realtors.

What's wrong with this picture?
 
It clearly shows/designates every square inch of America as 'gray wolf habitat' -- the areas left 'white' show as 'endangered' habitat and, by ESA definition, 'all or part of' the 'historic range.' 
 
This is proof positive that the agenda is not about 'protection' or 'recovery:' it is 'We want it All.'
 
Most have heard of predatory lending. This is predatory property rights taking under the guise of the ESA.
 
As Montana Bob so succinctly puts it, the wolf is being used as a real estate agent.
 
The entire text at the original fws.gov website becomes, therefore, deceptive and suspect: "In April, 2003 the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) changed the listing status for the gray wolf in the conterminous U.S. In addition to changes in ESA status, the 2003 Rule included Special Regulations under section 4(d) of the ESA to address control of depredating gray wolves. A January 31, 2005, ruling from the U.S. District Court in Portland, Oregon, vacated and enjoined the Service's 2003 changes. The Oregon ruling concluded that the 2003 Distinct Population Segment boundaries and reclassification decisions were "arbitrary and capricious" and violated the Endangered Species Act. A May 6, 2005 ruling (PDF) by the Judge provided clarification of the original ruling. The Vermont District Court ruled similarly. The Oregon Court's ruling invalidated the April 2003 changes. Therefore, gray wolves in the conterminous states (except Minnesota where the gray wolf remains listed as threatened) and Mexico are endangered, except where they are listed as part of an Experimental Population for reintroduction purposes. Experimental Population Areas are found throughout Wyoming and in portions of Montana, Idaho, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas." (emphasis in original)
 
'Thanks' to the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service and The Wildlands Project, laboring under the guise of 'native,' huge wolves from Canada are actual 'invasive species,' here to take control of rural America. Have rural Americans (and their children, pets and livestock, as well as wildlife) become guinea pigs of the ESA and Wildlands Project? You decide.
