I've entered that contest for the last couple/three years. $50 entry fee. Well worth it up here, as wuff numbers are completely mind blowing the last few years.

Think I won a thermos last year.

(Interestingly enough, one of the founding companies of the wolf contest also does a coyote derby, but I think it's only for employees of that company, and it's only over a weekend.)

It encourages a bunch of local guys up here to actually shoot at wolves, as there seems to be a fairly high contigent of guys who'll bitch about moose/elk/deer numbers being down and in the same breath say they saw 2 or 6 or 15 wolves over the course of hunt and didn't shoot any...
