Many people around the world love and respect the wolves as very beautiful and wonderful creatures in our world. They value their lessons that they have to teach us and some view them as very spiritual beings. At the same time many other people do not understand the wolves and because of this they fear and have a hatred for them. They set out to kill and eradicate the wolves from their natural homes in the wild.
Because of this misunderstanding wolves have or are about to become very endangered in many areas of the world. Wolves are very crucial to the environment because they tend to stabilize an ecosystem by their influence as an Apex predator. Without wolves, ungulates will become overpopulated, cause destruction to many trees that they eat and thereby effect many other creatures that depend on them also causing a downward spiral. Many ungulates will also die of starvation then.
Therefore due to the importance of wolves in the world, all the misconceptions and the fact that in the U.S the wolf hunts will begin in September of this year, it has become of great necessity to set aside a special day of recognition and education to ensure that the persecution of wolves is stopped. This day will go forward on an annual basis as the International Wolf Day. August 13th was chosen for the very special reason that it is the day of the full moon.
We hope that someday we will no longer have to protect the wolves in the world from slaughter but until that day comes we will send out a call to rally in support of saving them. We must stand strong together in fighting the many odds against the wolves.

the howl
There was a time the world was ours
No big tall buildings, no noisy cars
N...o people with guns, shooting at
Everything they see
When we could howl
As a family
When we could roam our world
At will
Not worrying about if we would
Be killed
The moon our beacon, the sun our friend
We did not think this would ever end

That is so true and so sad that the wolves once peaceful life is now threaten by man's ignorance . Very well said i hope u don't mind but i would love to put that on my profile to show people how times have changed for the wolves.
A poem by Baron Barrymore Halpenny
I am but a Wolf, born to be free,
This should be clear, for all to see,
I want nothing, but what is rightfully mine,
Decreed as such, since the beginning of time.
I hold no anger, yet man I fear,
For man destroys, yet sheds no tear,
For how can I, have respect for you,
With all the destruction, that man can do.
They are magiificent and noble creatures who suffer from an ill-deserved reputation.
And the Wolf howled the moon into existence.
I loved my black wolf, we was my protector for years, i had him since he was a pup,and i was a child, he would not let anyone get close to harm me,I could see it in his eyes, he would always be with me, even today he is still with me in my dreams, he walked beside me, he put his mouth on my hand and never put a mark on me, when I'm sick or need help he is always there for me, O Siam
We don't inherit the Earth from our parents, we borrow it from our children. Save it and all of animals that call it home.

WILD GREY WOLF
I am a wild grey wolf.
There is no place for me,
Most forests are taken.
I am a warrior without sword,
I have a strong dreams.
No need for weapon, I am awaken…
I am a wild grey wolf.
Still cannot find my pack,
Most forgot , why they are hunting.
I am shifting anger to hope,
Moon covers a pain within a light.
One day they will hear my heart beat…
