LETTER: Is the Wolf Count Accurate?

By Beacon Staff

Why issue such a huge numbers of licenses when using the draw system could be a better way to control the quota per county?

Just how will Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks assure me that only 75 wolfs will be taken?

The hunter who has had little or no luck getting his elk in the Big Hole area needs to come and get his elk in Eureka. Here they are abundant, as a large heard of 250-plus bed down around my home each winter.

Perhaps the wolf count is inaccurate?

I feel the hunters using a predator call, or lotions and scents to attract game need to be fair and hunt like our ancestors did: Just look, watch and listen. Instead of being a “cheater,” hunt like a real man! As far as fearing the wolf as being a threat to man, people are watching too many “horror films.” Get over it folks!
