Wolves were hunted pretty much out of existence in New England.

Hunters are fine with bolt actions. Many of the best trophy hunters use a single-shot rifle because it is lighter. They hunt in the more rugged territory and walk and stalk for greater distances because they pass up shots. A semi-auto rifle makes a hunter more likely to spray bullets around and hope rather than concentrating on ONE ACCURATE shot.
