i have hunted the selway in idaho for a good many years. i quit last year i don't have horses.it's been going down hill for a long time in the areas i hunt.the last time i hunted there i spent 2 days tring to find the elk.when i found them guess what the wolves knew where they were to. i found a wallow in a big mud flat about three acres it was coverd with wolf tracks.a pack of wolves don't realy care about a little ol deer they want big game big family big game.they can kill any elk they come on not just calfs .they will hound it up to a week not let it eat or sleep they run it down then its feast time.here in wisconsin we just got a start on our elk herd guess what wolves killed a young 5 by 5 this animal was in perfect shape we have lots of deer here.but the elk is high on there list of food.like i said before more wolves less tags selway has a 365 or so out of state tag limit im sure that will be less as time goes on.as far as i see it wolves belong with the dinosoars a thing of the past they have no place in 2004.hunters control game pops very well they can be regulated unlike the wolves.
