Wolves in the Netherlands

In the Netherlands, we currently have about 100 wolves walking around. Politicians say this is a "natural phenomenon" and that they walked here from their own volition. Meanwhile animals in rural areas are being killed by these wolves and even a runner has been attacked, while the government forbids the shooting of them because they want to first "establish a healthy state of conservation." The media is now even informing people about how to spot the difference between a wolf and a dog.

Various other groups question the theory since the Netherlands is a tiny country which no real large swaths of land. Some hunters argue that wolves are not even happy here. They need real nature to roam around in not the fake human-made nature the size of a postage stamp that the Netherlands has. I am leaning to this side. The whole problem to me appears to be yet another fake problem. Like so many things, it's a distraction (divide and conquer).

The main argument as I see it against wolves is very simple. Here is some data for the amount of people per square kilometer in various countries.

The Netherlands: 533 inhabitants per square kilometer.

United States: 38 inhabitants per square kilometer.

Russia: 9 inhabitants per square kilometer.

Canada: 4 inhabitants per square kilometer.
