Title: Did the Idaho Senate really approve eliminating a bunch of wolves?
Post by: CastleRocker on April 22, 2021, 06:30:15 PM: I heard they did, and then I did a search, and either I'm dreaming, or maybe it's just internet "stuff". Of course it still has to pass the house...

Best place for ID wolf info here. Also good bunch to be a member of and help out. Looks like there is something in the News section regarding your question. I did not take time to read it yet though...

The headlines on google from pretty much everyone are absurd. Politicians shouldn’t be managing wildlife this was a mistake I think. Get ready for the lawsuits lol. Fish and game was already moving in the direction of more tags longer seasons etc.
