Sounds like Idaho has their priorities straight. Made the mistake of reading some of the comments after the article. These people just drive me crazy. If they love the wolves so much they should just start an “adopt a wolf” program and take one home with them.
I think Idaho’s got the right idea for wolves in another way: fund their management by selling wolf tags to hunters, who can also manage them in a very direct way.
They’ll have to since the animals that hunters really like to hunt will have severely falling populations.
