Lawsuit Could Halt Wolf Hunts In Wyoming, Montana, Idaho
From the Cowboy State Daily:
Alleged bad wolf management by Montana and Idaho could shut down wolf hunts in those states and Wyoming, if a complaint filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court by environmental and animal welfare groups succeeds.
“Wolves in the northern Rocky Mountains are not currently protected under the ESA” (Endangered Species Act), says a complaint filed in Missoula, Mont. Division of U.S. District Court, and more aggressive hunting and trapping methods that have been proposed in Montana and Idaho could threaten the animals’ continued recovery in the region.”
