The Hokkaido wolf became extinct because the Meiji government saw the wolf as a threat to ranching, which they strongly supported. So they put a bounty on wolves and started a Direct Chemical Campain to poison them. I just hope that we aren't stupid enough to do this again.
a large number of deer starved to death in 1878 because of a heavy snow, having a great negative affect on the HHokkaido wolf. In addition, the wolves were deliberately poisoned with strychnine by farmers who viewed the wolf as a threat to their livestock. A bounty was placed on the wolf which officially became extinct in 1889.
Since then, there have been people calming to see the Hokkaido wolf. However, none of these sightings have been verified.
There were a number of factors that caused the Honshu wolf's extinction. Humans, disease such as rabies, and deforestation of the Honshu wolf's habitat caused extinction.
The Kenai Peninsula Wolf became extinct because of an influx of prospectors during the gold rush using predator control programs that included using poison and heavy hunting and trapping.
The marsupial wolf or thylacine became extinct in 1933. It was hunted to extinction in Tasmania by settlers,although some people believe a few may still exist.

Extinct. Wolves are predators of deer. If the wolf population increases the deer population will become extinct. Log in for more information.
not much will change, and if they do become extinct, lots of wolves are being held captive in zoos so they will probably breed and then get "kicked out" to re-create the wolf population
85 percent of wolf species are extinct.
