The reason they had no collars? In sept 2018 when a range rider wounded the collared male, wdfw went and put him down from a helicopter. They had the opportunity to tranq and collar the female right then but decided not to because it was "too hot out." Wdfw intentionally dropping the ball. Intentionally making it so they wouldnt be able to take the remaining wolves out if (when) the threshhold for lethal removal was met imo. Easy way to avoid bad press and lawsuits.

The whole pack needs to be removed or the livestock predations will continue. Two wolves will just produce more lawsuits from WDFW fake environmental partners...

As of this winter 2 is all that was left. Female and one of her grown pups. Dont know if there was a litter this year. If not, its still just the 2. No collars though.
