ermm, a lot can be said about the wolves in idaho. we have ****ed it up twice now. Our elk population is on a huge decline, and moose especially. Did anyone mention that these wolves are not the same species that originally populated our forests?
It is a big problem that needs to be dealt with in the next few years, before the population explodes. The researchers responsible for keeping track of the wolves admit to having an ALMOST certain idea of their numbers. I personally have only seen one pack of wolves, and im out hunting in a lot of Idaho. Ive only seen them in Deadwood, after a horse was put down, a pack of wolves came in on it.
Contrary to popular belief, a hunting season would be an extremely good thing for the population of wolves. If anyone in Idaho has actually gone out into the wild purposefully looking for them, they know how difficult it is to actually find one. If they were to allow a limited number of tags out to the public, we could save tax dollars, and i would pick one up. Knowing full well my chances of actually seeing one during elk season are slim. It is more about supporting my Idaho, by buying all licenses and tags that i can. I not only get to enjoy a unique hunt, I get out and see the wildlife that our state has to offer.
Kinda awkwardly set up, but i havent slept for a few hours more than id like.
anyways, i hope some people reply to my post and despite poor flow, listen to what i have to say.
p.s. post above me is extremely misinforming. he obviously doesnt understand the way free range livestock operates. one wolf is not a great loss for the population, they have NO REAL threats currently.

I live in Idaho too, for about the last ten years almost. I've seen a coyote but never a wolf since I live in boise just by where arid desert starts. I think this issue is pretty complicated, why are the wolves not eating their natural prey like deer and instead attacking sheep and cattle because it's convenient. Do they not have enough to eat? None of the stories I have followed ever seem to focus on the whole actual issue so I don't have much of an opinion on them.
