I agree the wolves need to be managed by the state instead of the fed's. I dont think raising lic fees has any bearing weather or not the general sportsman will fight or not fight against the tree hugger on this issue.
Speaking of raising the lic fee's. I actually know of some non residents who dont mind the idea. They are looking at the wide picture, not the narrow view. They like to hunt, working class with familys. Yeah they dont like the 300 odd dollar raise, but they think the odds of drawing is going to be much better becuase of some people not applying because of this reason. Which means they mabey can go hunting every year instead of having years they dont draw while they sit at home and watch the next guy hunt. 300 dollars in todays world, less than dollar a day. Less than 1 coffee a day, or a pop. Dont take much to make up for the raise in fee's if your priority is wanting to go hunting in Montana.
