Lvmiker: Much of the Elk and Moose Hunting opportunities in the western part of Montana have been greatly DIMINISHED since the introduction of Canadian Wolves here!
I archery Hunted a secret drainage in SW Montana every September/October for 25 years and always had Elk to Hunt - now there are NO Elk there and the Moose population is next to nothing - but we got WOLVES!
Nothing in my secret spot but the occassional Wolf track and some scat with Moose hair in it.
Sad.
I am happy to see the increased tags for Wolves this year - if nothing else the greens in the Montana Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks know which side of their bread thats buttered.
After years of not selling out the Elk licenses and much lost revenue they are now trying to relieve the Elk decimation by selling more Wolf tags.
Anyone that thinks Wolves are not to blame for reductions in Hunting opportunities in western Montana is simply not paying attention (or is stupid!).
Thanks for nothing rmWf!
