Idaho’s wolf killings decline as board advances private contracts
From Boise Public Radio:
The number of wolves killed in Idaho this past year is down. Katie Oelrich with the Idaho Department of Fish and Game told members of the Wolf Depredation Control Board Thursday that 389 wolves have been killed in the state since last July.
“This includes hunting, trapping, Wildlife Services removals, roadkill and all the other things that we get brought into us or we’re notified of,” she said.
The total number of wolves killed is about 10% lower than last year and 20% lower than the past three years.
