Washington wildlife commissioners vote against wolf-livestock rule
From The Spokesman-Review in Spokane, Washington:
Washington will not implement wolf-livestock rules two years after Gov. Jay Inslee asked state wildlife managers to reduce the number of wolves killed.
The 9-person commission voted 5-4 to not adopt the rule Friday morning. With that vote the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife will continue to manage wolves under the wolf-livestock protocols which have been developed in the 14 years since wolves naturally returned to the state.
