I did decide already, actually. Just interested in feedback from local Northwesterners.
I still have my wolf tag from earlier this year.
I had the chance to talk with Idaho Fish and Game Director Cal Groen a few months back, and he told me the sale of out of state deer and elk tags was way down, the #1 reason being the effect of Canadian gray wolves on the herds. The general (rifle) elk season is only 10 days this year in most parts of the state, except for the Lolo region, where there is no season at all. It's no coincidence that the Lolo region has Idaho's highest density of wolves.
You want feedback from Northwestern hunters on Gov. Otter's telling the USFWS to stick their Canadian gray wolves up their Obamas? Here it is...way to go, Butch!!! Gov. Otter was already going to coast to re-election (last poll I saw showed him with about a 25-30 point lead over his doofus opponent), but I suspect he'll pick up even more support now. He's certainly won my vote over and over again.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
