Even if I hadn't, it certainly cannot be a nice thing -- aggressively chasing a very strong animal in its own natural habitat (doing nothing to anyone but trying to survive like the rest of us) to exhaustion by an airplane in order to shoot it. They miss the first couple times too and usually only maim the animal until they go in for the final kill. It's treating our wildlife like they're criminals. The pilots are the criminals. This practice needs to be outlawed. We’ve seen video.

You can't get a clean shot off, so the wolf gets wounded, bleeds all over the snow, and dies slowly. Or the planes just chase the wolf til he's exhausted. Then they land and the shooter gets out and pops the wolf from close range. Not sportsmanlike. Lazy, cowardly, and inhuman. Just callin it like I see it. Hunting from an airplane is inhumane.
