Wolf-Shooting Restrictions

Didn't know this:

Currently Federal Rule 10-J allows commercially licensed OUTFITTERS only to shoot wolves that attacking their horses, we non-outfitter licensed horsemen must simply sit and watch the wolves eat our horses.

The excerpted email concerns a USFish and Wildlife Service meeting to be held in Idaho discussing changing the cited rule to allow NON-'outfitter' folks to shoot predators.

And those non-outfitters include more than horse-owners. Your friendly neighborhood wolf is ALSO more valuable to USFWS than your pooch.

Well if you have a shovel and the ability to keep your mouth shut I do not see any problems with ridding yourself of a wolf problem ;)

Shoot

Shut up
