I live in central Idaho, every wolf should be killed in this state. It was a bad experiment.

wolves kill for the fun of it. elk deer and every other large game popullations are being decreased intensly cause of the blood hungry beasts that the tree huggers are so fassinated by. all wolves do is kill thats the only thing that comes to there mind. There are more than enough wolves in idaho, and I think there “pretty” and all but there a nuscence

To leave the wolf alone like Amanda Says would over time kill every animal (Elk, Deer, Moose, Big Horn Sheep, Mountain Goat & Small Animal) Living in the mountains with them. The wolf is to me the perfect killing machine. Not only do they have size they have extreme smarts when it come to taking down their prey. I can understand people standing up for the wolf. But don’t ever tell me your doing a good thing by standing up for the wolf when by doing so alows MANY different animals to die.

They are far from extinction.
That’s why the COURT a approved a season on them
Do you think that they would if it was going to wipe them out?
Most people I see that leave a comment like that live in the city and don’t spend any time in the woods with wildlife. I have seen them all from Elk, Deer, Moose, Bear and wolfs and there are plenty of them and most of them have been being hunted sense before you and I were born. So I am going to trust the people that have managed wild game longer then we have and know what they are doing.

You people should be ashamed of yourselves.The number has to rise,it’snowhere near what it should be. Just let them live their lives. They are magnificent animals that deserve a chance at life just like we do. I’mno tree-hugger, but I do believe in saving the wild wolf from extinction.

It is interesting to me to se ethat they want 518 taken and then only allow 220 tags to be purchased statewide. Usually, there is only 18-29% filled…Sooooo, why the lag tag allance then? :{)

I agree 100 percent
I think a very small percentage of the 518 will actually be killed, probably in between 100 and 200 with Idaho and Montana combined.
I went to the website you listed and it is a very informative site.
Is it yours?

Wolves are a predator, like coyotes, like mountain lions, like black bears, and a stable population can be maintained by hunting them as has been proven with all of these species. Last time I checked there was no limit on bear or lion tags, but they are quite plentiful in Idaho and Montana. People who assume wolves are going to be wiped out by a state run hunting season are sorely mistaken. Just becasue Idaho sets a quota of 518 wolves, it doesn’t mean 518 will be killed. People don’t give the wolf much credit for being able to survive. They were only eradicated in the 19th century when poisoning was allowed.
For the people that understand the importance of a season, not only to control the population, but to form a coallition of hunters who now want to wisely manage and conserve a new game species, please vist http://www.huntwolves.com for information about the new wolf hunts.
