Wolf Shot in Wyoming

[shagster]

Check this story out. Wolf #253 killed the same day it became legal!! What are your thoughts on this? Seems someone knew the opportunity would arise and was just sitting around waiting. I wonder if this person was protecting live stock or anything else, or if he just wanted to shoot the thing!!

Sure, shoot a cripple

There have been multiple wolves shot so far. At this point they are unsure exactly how many have been shot, since you have 10 days to report the kill.

It won't last long....there are numerous groups in line waiting for the 60 day(or 30?) period to laps in which they can bring suit against the new regulations.

A wild gray wolf trapped six years ago in Utah and returned to Wyoming was among four wolves killed in the Cowboy State within the first three days of the animals

Can't wait until I get togo up to Wyoming and harvest some wolves for myself.

Interesting. My post gets deleted. How lame. Apparently it's OK to shoot wolves for cheap blood sport thrills but it's not OK to shoot cows.

As the old girl once said, "Whatever."

Shooting cattle is a felony. Please do video it.

Right-o, Johnny Law, I'll be sure and do that. Sheesh.

Remember: That's TWO cows for ONE wolf. Maybe three cows.

In the last 2 weeks of March b4 the new open season went into effect the Wildlife service took out 8 wolves and pretty much did that for the last 2 or more years on and off. This isn't going to wipe the wolves out by any means. I have no want to kill a wolf. If it does mess with my live stock I will do what is needed though as I would with a Big cat or bear. Nothing more and nothing less. I do think that the "kill the wolf" mentality is gone a little overborad and a lot of it is just to get a response out of those who want the wolf. It just comes down to the fact that we as humans have messed up the environment and we can't turn back time. The wolf just isn't going to be able to freely roam thru out the west . That's just a fact .
