First Wolf Killed in Montana Archery Hunt

First Wolf Killed in Montana Archery Hunt

A wolf in Montana was killed in an archery hunt this week, the first animal in the state to be taken down this year by a hunter after Congress's unprecedented removal of gray wolves in Montana and Idaho from the endangered species list. Sadly, many more wolves are expected to be killed in upcoming hunts. More than 8,000 hunting licenses have been sold in Montana, where wildlife officials have agreed to let up to 220 wolves be hunted.
Wolves have a lot more to fear than just hunters. Idaho Game and Fish has already allowed the aerial shooting of several wolves in northern Idaho in the name of elk protection, which wouldn't have been permitted before congressional meddling removed federal protections.

Please write to your Congressmen and tell them you do not support removing Gray Wolves from the endangered species list. Needless to say, being Native American and with the name Greywolf you

probably know how I feel about killing wolves.
