So, the letter to the editor from today's class, "Science Favors wolves" could be reconstructed as follows:

The author of this letter argues that Idaho's quota for legal killing of wolves jeopardizes wolf recovery. Her main rationale for this claim is the argument that Idaho's Fish and Game official are bias toward pro-hunting interests. The author claims that in other cases Idaho officials were bias toward pro-hunting interests. Therefore, it is likely that they have set the quota too high.
