HSUS did it the last time filed suit and killed the states plan...I believe that was in Idaho. They have loudly said they will file suit against any state that tries to institute hunting of wolves even if all it does is slow the proccess and cost the state money.

Post by: bearpaw on July 29, 2009, 11:07:03 PM: andrew_12gauge...you are correct....from what I heard wyoming is trying to play hardball and do it thier own way. They don't want to accept the numbers the feds want.

It's a gamble.....they probably will not be delisted as soon but if they win, they won't have to harbor as many wolves in their state.... :twocents:

Then they will allow more hunting in future. :twocents:

Wyoming has tried to hold the feds and environmentalists to the original reintroducing plan. Which was a dishonest from the start. The feds past wyomings first wolf plan, but the environmentalists gut shot it. As you can see it really does not matter what the plan says, the people who are in charge don't want any wolves killed. I hope that the wolves will be able to be hunted this year and that everyone Follows the rules while hunting the wolves. It has been said, 75 wolves out of say 3000 won't help much, but it is a start.

Post by: andrew_12gauge on July 30, 2009, 03:46:59 PM: i think you guys are gonna be able to buy non res tags here in idaho a lot cheaper than $350 as well last year they were all set to go on sale when the judge blocked the hunt and the non res tags were going to be around 150 if i remember correctly
