Wolf Hunting To Expand

Endangered or not, wolf killings set to expand
Posted: 9:31 am PDT September 6, 2010

Text SizeAAABILLINGS, MT -- Government agencies are seeking broad new authority to ramp up killings and removals of gray wolves in the Northern Rockies and Great Lakes, despite recent court actions restoring the animal's endangered status across most of the country.

Various proposals would gas pups in their dens, surgically sterilize adult wolves and allow "conservation" hunts to drive down the predators' numbers.

Once exterminated across most of the West, wolves made a remarkable comeback in recent decades. Yet as packs continue to multiply, their taste for livestock is stoking a backlash.

Wildlife officials say that without public wolf hunting, agencies need greater latitude to eliminate problem packs.

Wolf advocates say the response to marauding wolves is too heavy-handed.© 2010 The Associated Press. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed.

I was just watching a show called Boone and Crockette county and it was all about the wolf situation. It is some crappy stuff how the wolf lovers get away with what they are doing. Scary thing is that if it keeps going this way Elk might be on the endangered list and then we are all screwed.  Don't think it will come to that but I believe that is their goal.
If its brown knock it down

I might have to buy an ultra light and an Ar 15.... It would be an expensive birthday/Christmas!
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

SpecialT  good idea, but you might be careful if I remember right some guy in Idaho got busted in a powered parachute and a 12 ga. doing the same thing.   :chuckle: :chuckle:
