Wolf Hunting in Montana

[dhostetler]

Montana Fish & Game is taking public comments till June 14th on there wolf hunting proposals. Everybody on here should comment. Following is the comments I e-mailed them:

I support the 216 Alternative.

I don't believe that the quotas will be filled this year, with a higher quota and there will probably be less tags sold every year as the average hunter realizes the chance of a shot at a wolf is very slim and won't be willing to waste $19.00 every year. The tag cost should be dropped to $5.00 each for residents and non residents with everyone being able to buy 2 tags. It should be a top priority of FWP to reduce the wolf numbers and do it by any means possible to reach harvest goals.

On a personnal note I think they shouldn't be treated as a big game species and a $50.00 bounty put on them but I do realize that is not a realistic option.
