164 more to get out of the five units that have a harvest limit. The rest of the state has no harvest limit and some units are scheduled for a 10 month season. I think Idaho is worried that hunter success will be low and that hunters will not be able to keep the wolf packs from growing.
:yeah: they plan to shoot 800 wolves. They want to reduce down from over 1,000 to 150 dogs or stop at 15 BP. I heard they have almost 100 packs hang out in Idaho. :yike: I wanna move there.
:mgun: 85 wolves packs please.

But might we keep in mind that it isn't an arcade game they are playing and they aren't shooting zombies. I think that "Biting the dust" (nothing personal, SpookG, I'm just gonna use those words as an example) is something that should be reserved for the likes of the Raiders and the Lakers (or zombies) and not the game animals that we hunt. :twocents:

You aren't required to eat the predators that you kill, so saying "bite the dust" should be an acceptable phrase for them too. I really find it hard to believe that anyone would take exception to that kind of phrase when referring to the likes of coyotes or wolves......

8 more majestic wolves have been compassionately harvested. I am sure that the hunters are struggling with their own wolf like instinct to kill other predators.say what ya want but i say whack em all , killm all, dust them all, cream all of them, or just flat blow the crap outta them, :chuckle: :chuckle:. i figure there was a reason that the mighty majestic wolf was extinguished from the lower 48, BECAUSE THE GOOD LORD DIDNT WANT WOLF AND HUMAN INTERACTION..

Yes, congratulations go to the successful hunters; likely a 'first-ever' for each of them. I dream of one day having an opportunity to draw on a such an animal.

May I always be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.
It is funny because your dog and the wolf are the same*.
* Yes, there has been slight genetic drift, but the statement reflects a greater precision than that required by a taxonomy which places coyote and wolf in the same category (unless your diving line is 'wild'). Incidentally, a scientific classification which does allow this is the genus, and it most certainly places lupus, latrins, and familiaris in a common bucket. So, to speak precisely of 'the likes of coyotes or wolves....' requires that you speak at the same time of your dog.

Awesome, 10 elk killers down now and counting.
Mathmatically, according to studies in yellowstone park that show 1 wolf averages eating 1.7 elk per month, then 17 elk per month or 204 elk per year in Idaho have already been saved during the first week of Idaho wolf season, and that's not counting wolf reproduction that won't happen. :tup:
Great work...... :mgun:

U would need two trucks. Dont want one truck broke down there. or ur will be in deep sh!t. :chuckle: No wonder why ZERO kill on quote. :'( I believe there is 400 wolves hang out there. Maybe if u wait till very first snow 1" to 5". Go there and will find cut and call them in. Find a good area where Elk and Wolves track. Try North anywhere East Avery on Hwy 50 search North where ever u like. find creek they most close there.
I will go on weekend this winter if My spinecord dont get so bad.

Mule, this pic was from lolo. I called in a bull and the wolf let out a odd sound.....not a howl, not a bark....just odd. The wolf was on the bull and i likely heard his last sounds. I could not yet carry my rifle and pack, so I could only try to watch from a vantage point. There were next to no elk tracks in the higher country from pearce to Powell and only a few wolves crossed the divide road. The outfitters actually feel the wolf count is down since there is nothing to eat
I wonder if u could set 7 Decoy Elk and put Fox caller middle in a very open area and u could sit above ridge watch them come in open area.

Only bad part about ID wolf hunting is that the dogs will be getting educated and heading for the border where they will learn that we can't shoot at them. :(
I think the dogs already know that little fact and have been migrating our way for some time.

If you bought a wolf tag in 2011 and the season is still running do you have to buy a new 2012 hunting license or is the tag still good. I sent some wolf pictures to bearpaw a friend sent me they were big maybe he can post them.
You need a 2012 tag. Your 2011 tag and hunting lic are no longer valid. Their tags and licenses run calendar year.

I agree, in 2010 the Nez Perce tribe an the Fed's counted a minimum of 760 wolves (IDFG did not participate) but likely there were 1000 + wolves.
hunting /trapping remove 300 wolves, with birth rates at 20-30% Idaho will be back to 900-1000+ wolves by this fall. :twocents:

Its great news but kind of screws up my personal wolf hunting. They've got them scattered into singles and pairs everywhere. They have even found a pack 35 miles from their "home range" from being chased by helos so much! I'm not going to complain too much we got other areas to try and hunt!

Got to love the fact that I'm taxed to study putting wolves back, so that I can be taxed for working to put wolves back, so that I can be taxed to pay for putting wolves back, so that I can be taxed for protecting wolves, so that I can be taxed for monitoring the expanded wolf population, so that I can be taxed to support the legal battle over wolves, so that I be taxed to let them shoot a few out of a helicopter.
Makes me want to punch someone....
