Wolf hunting is now legal in Idaho, after Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar removed the animal from the endangered species list. This video is the first in a series about the challenges facing Mr. Salazar.
I moved to Idaho to enjoy viewing the game. And I have for years now in my pasture thru my dinning room window. Since the reintroduction of the wolf the first to go were the wild turkeys and the rabbits, now the deer (no fawns this year) the elk and the moose are seldom here. The lone wolf well he is beautiful, and sings real well at night. I don't like him much he got my dog with me right there 5' 7" from the door today. My truck is parked better than 20 feet away. Do the math, need the gun.
once they start hunting them the wolves will be too wary to take with any type of sporting hunt. They will end up chasing them in aircraft, tracking them with dogs, and probably trapping or poisoning them. Bottom line is, only vicious people take pleasure in killing animals.
@subarkin I love Idaho. If we do not manage the wolf population the hunting will be non existent in the decade. This is reality and the wolf lovers need to take their blinders off and accept it.
@ruj1970 You make me envious. I would like to live and hunt in such environment. Wolves do not like old timbers. They like tundra, forest intermingled with fields, prarie or river valleys. Idaho could not be a donut hole in original wolf range. Now, environment, except the shooters, became better for wolves, because of man made fields, clearings of all kinds and increased deer population.
@subarkin I had a full grown mountain lion in a tree 30 feet from my house about ten years ago. 6 years ago a grizzly bear ate the gut pile from my deer.
@ruj1970 I honestly appreciate you answering my posts, to better or worse. This is wonderful that we have brown bear and mountain lion in Idaho. Now, we have wolves there as well. I mean to reintroduce bears and mountain lions in other places, where they had been exterminated. Of course, it is impossible to restore their original (before settlers) range, but some habitats are still safe and available. Even animal rights movement is a symptom of urbanization nationwide. We huntersare a minority.
Let's reintroduce the Wolf into New York's Central Park....Let's see how the libs like that!

Dude, wolves bite! This "big boned" lady aught to take a hike in my woods, she'd help the red wolf population for at least a week!

All these wolf lovers don't live with them and suffer the damage they can cause.
