Because they are endangered. Because of Europeans. Yes, i am sure you are wondering what Europeans have to do with this. OK, story time. Once upon a time wolves lived happily in the USA, when along came a bunch of Europeans. And those Europeans brought some stories along with them, like little red riding hood, and three little pigs. And the Europeans told those stories like wolves were BAD, and were going to kill us ALL! So the people got scared, AND KILLED ALL THE WOLVES! So now there are no wolves in the USA naturally. you know, this reminds me of a poem, and I've listed it here, it's a long poem. but please, read till the end. It's a poem called, Men are Murderers:

He stands alone at the top of the hill,

And sings his mournful cry,

His mate and pups are missing,

He's not certain why.

He had been out hunting

Was only gone for a day,

And hurried back with empty jaws

So scarce now was their prey.

He wasn't gone long

Eager to get home,

But the den was cold and empty

And he sensed something was wrong.

The smell of man was everywhere

With footprints in the dirt,

And bloodshed from his family,

He knew they had been hurt.

He sat and waited day by day

With hopes they would return,

There wasn't much he could do

Except quietly sit and yearn.

Why would man come all this way

To hunt and shoot them down,

To interrupt their quiet lives

When no harm had been done?

Their territory plainly marked

And not once did they stray,

For they would rather starve to death

Then to get in man's way.

The smell of chickens, cows, and sheep

Were so tempting at times,

But instincts warned not to hunt them

Or they would lose their lives.

And so they lived a quiet life

Existing on small game,

Careful it was only wildlife

And nothing man had tamed.

So he could find no reason

For the blood shed on that day,

So peacefully they lived here

So far out of man's way.

Maybe they'd becoming back

His pups and his mate,

Wolves are mated once for life

So he would sit and wait.

That was many moons ago

And they have not come back,

But he will not stop hoping

For the reunion of his pack.

He now knows men are murderers

But still does not know why,

And every night he climbs his hill

And sings his mournful cry.

I cry every time i read this poem. for it IS so true. Wolves dont mess with humans, not even if they have to, that was also a poem, by me.

the only reason why we still have wolves here is because the last people who care about wolves have resantly made a trip up to Canada, and brought back some wolves into yellowstone national park. currently there are three living wolf packs still in yellowstone. and a few wolves traveling through Oregon and California. so please, help the wolves, donate, but if you can't all you have to do is warn people not to kill them, you may even save a life.

The gray wolf, because of its vast range, is not considered an endangered species. Some local populations have declined, but others are thriving. The red wolf, Canis Rufus, is an endangered species, and only around 110-115 remain in the wild, all in North Carolina's Alligator River Wildlife Refuge.
