Idaho Senate unanimously backs plan for wolf hunting season
The Idaho Senate unanimously endorsed a plan to open a hunting season on wolves, perhaps as early as fall 2008.

If wolves are taken off the Endangered Species List and Idaho is allowed to manage them, the hunting tags would cost $9.75 for Idahoans and $150 for out-of-state residents.

"Once we have a wolf season, most hunters will put a tag in their billfolds in case they see one," Moscow GOP Sen. Gary Schroeder predicted.

The bill now goes to the House, where it likely will get a hearing in the Resources and Conservation Committee.

2. Idaho is too grand a state not to have wolves - and grizzlies too.
I hope we don't ever see a repeat of those dark days when wolf populations were first wiped out.

I hope they reproduce fast and learn where where there is enough good cover to hide out.

I remember camping out in Mallard Larkins roadless area with my dog a few years ago and hearing them howling all around me - on one side one day, on another side on another day. Beautiful.

3. Rather than do something smart
Like use the prevalence of wolves to promote tourism, Idahoans would rather just shoot and kill them.

Typical of the mentality I have seen when I've visited there.
