Bills look to extend wolf seasons in Montana
From BonnersFerryHerald.com:
The Montana House Fish, Wildlife and Parks committee spent nearly five hours Jan. 21 considering a trio of bills related to Montana’s population of roughly 1,100 resident wolves — far too many, according to two legislators seeking to cut the population nearly in half.
Two bills, both brought by freshman legislators, aim to reduce the population of wolves in Montana closer to 450, a number established by Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks that would sustain the population without risking the animals returning to the Endangered Species List.
