As long as people have shared
the environment with wolves, they
have had opinions about them.
An opinion is a person's point
of view or a judgment about a
topic. Opinions are not always
based on facts. The return of the
wolf has affected many people
who live near the park. Some
people think wolves are vicious
predators while others see wolves
as an essential component of the
Yellowstone ecosystem, or all
the plants, animals, and nonliving
things in the park's environment.
Analyze the opinions that follow.
Then decide which you are more
likely to agree with.
