Aconite is also known as wolfsbane, and monkshood. It grows in rocky areas with no nourishment nearby, and it is extremely poisonous. It has been used to coat arrows and harpoons. The poison is fast acting and causes death with a large dose. This plant received the name wolfsbane from its ability to kill wolves and panthers. It was even believed to cause rabies. In small doses this plant can be used for medicinal purposes. A scientific study showed that aconite targets the central nervous system and will lower blood pressure, reduce pain, and suppress epilepsy.

Farmers don’t want wolves in their property because they are having fear about protection of their livestock. Their stance is understandable but their revenge on against gray wolves is too harsh. According to PBS, During a fifteen year period, because of natural cause like bad weather, killed 20000 to 100000 of livestock and only less than 5000 of livestocks killed because of wolves. But more than 1000 of wolves were killed for their revenge. This harsh attitude towards wolves is leading to killing all of the gray wolves like starting anti-wolf campaign.

Most of time, the Federal government usually feels the duty to decide what is right with total widespread opposition. But the state government try to listen the people’s wishes. For this reason, Federal government and State government has difficulty to work together. But in my opinion, When different levels of government have different audiences and different priorities, it has a strong point of them to collaborate. The conflict between the different levels of government will make to come up with a better and best solution. In this case, without the Federal government , many species would already be extinct.
