Absolutely vital creatures for the ecosystem. Read how since being reintroduced in yellowstone ALL animals have flourished.

I just think we shouldn’t let random tourists feel like they can go up to wolves and pet them

They're are literally 0 wild animals i would try to pet. The less interaction the better. And yes wolves will sometimes perceive people as prey. Thus the less interaction comes into play.

I know, I’m asking a genuine question. I think all wolves will eat humans when they are hungry, am I wrong about that?

Shouldn't of said creatures meant species.

Then they hang around waiting for people to toss them food.
