Wolves

The commission also voted to reduce quotas in two hunting districts north of Yellowstone National Park from two wolves to one.

At the end of 2018 there were at least 80 wolves in nine packs with seven breeding pairs in Yellowstone.

A wolf report in Three Forks triggered a warning by the local school system.

Montana officials believe they've struck on the right formula to control the wolf population in Montana with a combination of both hunting and trapping.

A recent decision by a federal court has put Wyoming Wolves back under the federal protection of the Endangered Species list.

It's unclear if less-restrictive hunting and trapping regulations are the cause, but 2013 is set to have one of the lowest rates of wolf predation in the past seven years.

A recent University of Montana study found that wolf predation contributes to lower weight gain in calves on Montana ranches.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service recently announced that it would send a one-time payment of $170,000  to the Montana Livestock Board to help cover losses due to wolf predation.

Montana Fish, Wildlife, & Parks is beginning to prepare for wolf trapping season and anyone that wants to trap this year will need to get some prerequisites out of the way first.

Wolf population declines slightly, report says.
