It's not a bounty, you have to keep receipts of your costs to buy equipment, supplies, fuel used, etc., then you are reimbursed up to $1000 per wolf. The program is working.

I wondered.  Thank you!    I thinks its absolutely awesome.

There are good trappers who are paying for trucks and snowmobiles with the reimbursements.

Anyone interested in getting a Washington chapter going to do the same thing for our legal predators?

Wow.  Good on them.

I like the idea of the thing but it has encouraged a bunch of rookies to drop traps all over the hills.  As a result, wolves are super smart to steel now and there is some bycatch including dogs and ungulates.  Please be smart about where and how we set traps!

The statement on the poster "Wolf numbers so high the #1 killer of Idaho wolves is now other wolves" Has always been true. Wolves are very territorial and don't tolerate other packs.  I have mentioned this before when discussing wolves.

It's the same with lions, not sure why this is a big deal?
It's a factual statement used as a little bit of propaganda, wish all propaganda were factual
