One of my favorite areas in south central Idaho has been destroyed by wolves. The area didn't and still doesn't recieve a lot of hunting pressure and it had a lot of elk. Even the IDFG knew there was a lot of elk It was nothing to see 150 to 200 elk per day while bowhunting. But now for the last four years the wolves have been strong in the area and elk are becoming fewer and fewer. My wife and a friend drew (early rifle hunt) out in this area this year and I hunted with them for 10 days. We saw at most 50 elk the entire trip, we saw only 3, ONLY 3!!! six point bulls. My wife did miss one of the bulls. And I know some of you say so what you still saw a few elk and you did see three 6 point bulls. But to go from seeing 150 elk a day with 4-7 or so mature 6 point bulls or bigger per day, to this well it makes me very sad and very worried. It makes me wonder are there going to be any elk at all in four more years in that area. I know one thing I will be at the top of the food chain and join the SSS club if a wolf and I cross paths.
