Not what I expected since I saw the anti trapping billboards in Helena. Maybe there is still hope.

 

[Big.J]

Nice!

I'm glad we are heading in this direction.

It will end up putting wolves in both states back on the endangered species list just watch

Bozeman is over the top with antitrapping propaganda too. There's still a bunch of good people working hard to keep trapping around as an effective tool for management in MT.

its also over the top with extremely rich tree huggers and wolf lovers

One of my favorite quotes..."can't fix stupid" add that to money and it's a dangerous combination.

I saw the trapping through march 15, is the hunting season good through then as well?

Found yet another wolf kill in NW Montana. Though the state makes it easy to get tags/access, not a lot of success it seems to aid the problem at hand here, hopeful more folks get into wolf trapping.
